James Taylor commented on PHOENIX-2417:
---------------------------------------

Thanks for the update. I noticed one issue that may be causing the failures. In 
BaseResultIterators.incrementGuidePostStreamToCurrentKey you need to use the 
Bytes.compareTo() that takes an offset and length as the underlying 
ImmutableBytesWritable may have a length set that's less than byte[].length.
{code}
+    private int incrementGuidePostStreamToCurrentKey(PrefixByteDecoder 
decoder, DataInput input, byte[] currentKey) {
+        int count = 0;
+        try {
+            while (Bytes.compareTo(currentKey, CodecUtils.decode(decoder, 
input).get()) <= 0) {
+                count++;
+            }
+        } catch (EOFException e) {}
+        return count;
+    }
+
{code}

> We've found that smaller guideposts are better in terms of minimizing any 
> increase in latency for point scans. However, this increases the amount of 
> memory significantly when caching the guideposts on the client. Guidepost are 
> equidistant row keys in the form of raw byte[] which are likely to have a 
> large percentage of their leading bytes in common (as they're stored in 
> sorted order. We should use a simple compression technique to mitigate this. 
> I noticed that Apache Parquet has a run length encoding - perhaps we can use 
> that.
