---------------------------------------------------------------

[~ndimiduk] This is not an issue for us now as we use normalizer in a way that 
we will not encounter this anymore.

To elaborate more, we configure min number of regions after which normalizer 
should trigger to a number higher than number of region servers. In few cases 
the number is as large as twice the number of RS in cluster.

> we have a table on a cluster with 100 regions with default split policy 
> (SteppingSplitPolicy). This is a small table and will not get loaded with too 
> much data. Now if region size of table is smaller than the normalizer target 
> region size than there are chances that normalizer will consider the regions 
> for merges. But since the number of regions are small split policy will 
> trigger split on next flush. This is a continuous loop and our cluster will 
> be busy in these two actions.
> We plan to consider number of regions and number of regionservers in creating 
> plans for normalizer.
