Ted Yu commented on HBASE-9203:
-------------------------------
bq. As the user table and index table data is with different row keys, we won’t
be able to split the index region same way as user region at some middle point.
Since the midpoint for index table region may not be chosen for the split, it
is possible that the daughter regions of index region may have (quite)
different amount of data. How can we mitigate this effect ?
bq. Now what is different with the split of index region is the role of
HalfStoreFileReader.
Typo above: different with the split of user table region
