Should we be using the RangeEndEstimator when providing progress/splitting for ranges not ending at `Long.MAX_VALUE`? Lets say the range estimate is bad and is `MAX_VALUE - 3` but the real end is `5000`, then after a split we end up with `[0, (MAX_VALUE - 3) * 0.5)` and `[(MAX_VALUE - 3) * 0.5, MAX_VALUE)`. We may quickly learn that the residual is empty and then lose all effective progress on the primary. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
