stack commented on HBASE-3609:
------------------------------

bq. Empty server can be detected within balanceCluster(). But this detection 
has been performed by Master, hence the flag.

Thats fair.  Its nice having the balance invocation method simple as possible 
though.

bq. The static regionId helps make each region Id unique. I actually utilized 
this fact to debug my code.

I missed that it was being used.

bq. Preliminary response from Stan Barton showed improvement over random 
selector.
I am waiting for further feedback from [email protected] and Stan.

I think that if you get good feedback from others, that'll help getting this 
patch committed.

Good stuff Ted.
