LN updated HBASE-745:
---------------------

    Description: 
after weeks testing hbase 0.1.3 and hadoop(0.16.4, 0.17.1), i found there are 
many works to do,  before a particular regionserver can handle data about 100G, 
or even more. i'd share my opions here with stack, and other developers.

first, the easiest way improving scalability of regionserver is upgrading 
hardware, use 64bit os and 8G memory for the regionserver process, and speed up 
disk io. 

besides hardware, following are software bottlenecks i found in regionserver:
1. as data increasing, compaction was eating cpu(with io) times, the total 
compaction time is basicly linear relative to whole data size, even worse, 
sometimes square relavtive to that size.
2. memory usage are depends on opened mapfiles
3. network connection are depends on opened mapfiles, see HADOOP-2341 and 
HBASE-24.

will explain above in comments later.
