                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-2824
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: filters
            Reporter: Ferdy
            Priority: Minor


We needed a filter that allows us to randomly include rows. I will attach a 
patch with a simple Filter that is able to do this.

For example, if you wish to do a scan but only want 1/4 of all values (randomly 
distributed), you can use: new RandomRowFilter(0.25f)

I just wanted to share this Filter with you. It's up to you if you want to 
include it in the codebase.
