hbase not spliting when the total size of region reaches max region size * 1.5
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-2616
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2616
             Project: Hadoop
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: contrib/hbase
            Reporter: Billy Pearson
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 0.17.0


right now a region may get larger then the max size set in the conf 

HRegion.needsSplit

Checks the largest column to see if its larger then max region size * 1.5 and 
then desides to split or not 

But  if we have more then one column the region could be vary large
example

Say we have 10 columns all about the same size lets say 40MB and the max file 
size is 64MB we would not split even thought the region size is 400MB well over 
the 96MB needed to trip a split to happen.
