   Thanks for the ping, Duo. I'm still curious about what you saw.
   
   > I've tested the to read 1 byte, 2 bytes... And finally when I reached ~50 
bytes, the parse succeeded without error
   
   You have a filelist which you noticed giving a this TableNotFoundException 
when it was parsed. When you tried parsing it by writing some custom code, you 
saw that with different lengths provided, the protobuf parser gave different 
errors?
   
   You are assuming that, eventually, we may have a case where HBase may write 
out a SFT file with a bad size (maybe HBase or HDFS bug), and this should 
protect us in that case? The simple crc at the head of the file sounds 
reasonable to prevent that causing bigger problems.
