Thanks for the quick reply. I'm following the jvm Memory consumption (using "top") , and what bothers me is that it seems the percentages are just going up and up , and it makes me kind of worried.
I'm trying to load the system with 30GB of data (this is a benchmark) . I estimate that my production environment will require at least 3 times that size. Is there a rule-of-thumb as to how many region servers I'll need?
