Whoops, I hit send before considering the other meaning of overhead, sorry. Can't say yet, probably not much, but will profile. Best regards, - Andy --- On Mon, 10/18/10, Andrew Purtell wrote: > From: Andrew Purtell > Subject: Re: question about base64 > To: "Jack

Hi, Right now the regionserver does not do any interpretation of the data sent to it. The only "exception" is that we lexographically sort the rows, families and qualifiers, using a byte-by-byte comparison. Are you looking to send to the regionserver base64 and have it stored as raw/binary? Or
