Andrew Purtell commented on HBASE-862:
--------------------------------------
One problem with simple RR is that not all regionservers may come up at the
same time. Still need to consider region counts (but not load) in the beginning
to try to smooth assignments out.
Also I will try modifying bin/hbase-daemons.sh to issue commands via SSH in
parallel rather than sequentially, and have start-hbase.sh bring up the
regionservers ahead of the master.

> Project: Hadoop HBase
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: stack
>
> Daniel Leffel has an install of 500 regions on 4 nodes. He's running 0.2.0.
> On restart, load balancing is running while the 600 regions are being
> initially opened. Makes for churn. Load balancing should wait before it
> cuts in.
> Have also seen on occasion that it will not find equilibrium after a restart.
> Adding a node is catastrophic. >20% of the regions were closed and were
> taking the longest time to show up on the new server. I would think that the
> region balancing would work in more sophisticated and gradual manner.
