When last region gets new data and split in two - what is the split point - say last reagion was having 10 files and split alogorithm decided to split this region-
Will the two children regions have 5-5 files or the key space of original region(parent region) say have range (2015-08-01#guid to 2015-08-06#guid) will be divided to 2 equal parts child1 has (2015-08-01#guid to 2015-08-03#guids) and child2 has range (2015-08-04#guid to 2015-08-06#guid) and all data is rewritten in child regions to accomany this key range and then since its time series based so new data will come in increasing dates and for dates>2015-08-06 only so will go to child2 and child1 wil always be half filled. And child2 only will lead to new splits when reached split size threshold.
