Please take a look at TableSkewCostFunction in StochasticLoadBalancer (the
default balancer):
private static final String TABLE_SKEW_COST_KEY =
"hbase.master.balancer.stochastic.tableSkewCost";
private static final float DEFAULT_TABLE_SKEW_COST = 35;
You can increase the value for "hbase.master.balancer.stochastic.tableSkewCost"
so that your table is more balanced.
