Kay Kay commented on HBASE-2214:
--------------------------------

Makes sense conceptually . Would be nice to have a final version of the patch 
logging the number of rows on the server side when scanning by size , so as to 
estimate the density / sparsity of the data across columns when we scan by 
size. 


> Do hbase-1966 -- setting size to return in scan rather than count of rows -- 
> properly

> The notion that you set size rather than row count specifying how many rows a 
> scanner should return in each cycle was raised over in hbase-1966.  Its a 
> good one making hbase "regular" though the data under it may vary.  
> HBase-1966 was committed but the patch was constrained by the fact that it 
> needed to not change RPC interface.  This issue is about doing hbase-1966 for 
> 0.21 in a clean, unconstrained way.
