Cheney Sun commented on HBASE-9086:
-----------------------------------

Yes, this is exactly what I want. Thanks Jean-Marc. I changed the 
$HBASE_HOME/lib/ruby/hbase/table.rb in my client machine, change the line 161 
to scan.setFilter(org.apache.hadoop.hbase.filter.KeyOnlyFilter.new). A huge 
improvement was obtained - previously, count 100w lines took more 100 seconds, 
now count 400w line only need 75 seconds. 
I would like to work on the ruby scripts to provide the patch tomorrow. 
BTW, the count command in the shell didn't expose all the arguments in 
RowCounter, such as the --range option.

> The current count command in HBase shell is quite slow if the row size is 
> very big (100+kB each). It would be helpful to provide some option to specify 
> the column to count, which could give user a chance to reduce the data volume 
> to scan. 
> IMHO, only count the row key would be the ideal solution. Not sure how 
> difficult to implement it.
