Add configurable max value size check
-------------------------------------
Key: HBASE-1995
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-1995
Project: Hadoop HBase
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: client
Reporter: Lars George
Assignee: Lars George
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 0.21.0
After discussing with Michael, the issue was that if you have a region size of
for example 256M and you add a 1G value into a column then that region cannot
split and a cluster can become lopsided. It also means that you have a really
large block and the memstore would need to handle the 1G data. I proposed to
add a configurable upper boundary check that is throwing an exception on the
client side if the user tries to add a value larger than that limit. Ideally it
would be set to the maximum region size or less.
