Re:Re: What is the purpose of these system tables(CATALOG, STATS, and SEQUENCE)?

Hi James,
Too many regions can easily burden the hbase cluster heavily,  even if empty 
region, and also i think the SYSTEM.SEQUENCE table indeed need not so much 
regions.
After modify the phoenix.sequence.saltBuckets, and then restart hbase, the 
region number of SYSTEM.SEQUENCE table does not become less in the test cluster.
Thanks
