Jonathan Gray commented on HBASE-3488:
--------------------------------------

If a row has one column with 1000 versions, we only need the latest version of 
that column to know that the row exists and thus increment the row count by 
one, no?

> Allow RowCounter to retrieve multiple versions of rows

>          Components: util
>    Affects Versions: 0.90.0

>
> Currently RowCounter only retrieves latest version for each row.
> Some applications would store multiple versions for the same row.
> RowCounter should accept a new parameter for the number of versions to return.
> Scan object would be configured with version parameter (for scan.maxVersions).
> Then the following API should be called:
> {code}
>   public KeyValue[] raw() {
> {code}
