@Dan: Took a read over the patch, though it seemed to be based in a different 
dir and didn't want to apply nicely. From what I can see the ScanTest still 
does getScanner in testSetup before the timer is begun. This may be fine, if 
the point of this test is to measure scan performance per-row and not 
setup/teardown time. It just explains why the ScanTest doesn't exhibit this 
issue. It does look like other tests, such as the RandomSeekScanTest and the 
new RandomScanWithRangeTest do test setup/teardown time as part of each 
"testRow" and should exhibit this issue, if run.

Dave has a very good point, the ScanTest is a strange one.  It appears to be 
timing each call to ResetScanner#next and not including the cost of setting up 
or closing the scanner.  IMO, this should be changed but doing so would change 
any previous results...

> The write tests in the PerformanceEvaluation flush the MemStore after they 
> complete, as a result the read tests don't take the MemStore into account 
> (because it's always empty).  An optional flag could be provided when the 
> performance evaluation starts that dictates if the table should be flushed 
> after a test completes.  This optional flag would allow changes to the 
> MemStore to be performance tested...
