Dear fellow HBase developers, Could someone educate me and let me know how to figure out the number of disk seeks involved in a range search (startRow to endRow specified in Scan). Also, could anyone give me the details of all the steps involved once the Scan for range retrieval is called? I know somehow it needs to figure out the regionservers used in hosting the rows but I still don't have a clear understanding the whole steps involved :( :( Also, there is a data index block in HFile, I was wondering how the index block is utilized in figuring out the location of all the rows.
Thank you so much for satisfying my curiosity :) Have a good weekend and enjoy :) Wei Shung
