Hello,

I have a simpel table with 1.5 billion rows and one column familiy 'F'.
Each row key is 33 bytes and the cell values are void. By doing the math I
would expect this table to take up (33+1)x1.5*10^9 = 51GB. However if I do
a "hadoop dfs -du" I get that the table takes up ~82GB. This is after
running major compactions a couple of times. Can someone explain where this
difference might come from?

Regards,
