Jonathan Gray commented on HBASE-1502:
--------------------------------------

Following HBASE-2692, I think the only thing we're really using the heartbeat 
for is the mostLoaded servers.  But we're actually tracking all assignment 
in-memory anyways, so maybe we can do this now?  Shutdown stuff could come on 
it's own RPC?

> HBase currently uses heartbeats between region servers and the master, 
> piggybacking information on them when it can. This issue is to investigate if 
> we can get rid of the need for those using ZooKeeper events.
