> It may sometimes be advantageous to prevent the number of regions from
> growing very large. This may happen if the values are large in size even
> though the number of keyvalues are not large. If the number of regions
> becomes too large, then it is difficult to accommodate the memstore for each
> region in memory. In such cases, we either have to flush out memstore to disk
> or decrease size of each memstore.
