                 Key: HBASE-3721
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3721
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: util
            Reporter: Ted Yu


>From Adam Phelps:
from the logs it looks like <1% of the hfiles we're loading have to be split.  
Looking at the code for LoadIncrementHFiles (hbase v0.90.1), I'm actually 
thinking our problem is that this code loads the hfiles sequentially.  Our 
largest table has over 2500 regions and the data being loaded is fairly well 
distributed across them, so there end up being around 2500 HFiles for each load 
period.  At 1-2 seconds per HFile that means the loading process is very time 
consuming.

Currently server.bulkLoadHFile() is a blocking call.
We can utilize ExecutorService to achieve better parallelism.
