Ted Yu commented on HBASE-3305:
-------------------------------

If the total number of regions is small compared to the number of region 
servers, the benefit of round-robin is less obvious.
Our use case would do round-robin assignment for every table we create. I have 
no problem making this the default.

I plan to move the initialization of mRandomizer out of roundRobinAssignment()  
for better randomness.


> Allow round-robin distribution for table created with multiple regions
