Nicolas Liochon commented on HBASE-9976:
----------------------------------------

bq. We should just drop prefetch. It is of questionable, unproven benefit.
I was thinking about replacing it with a reverse scan (i.e. we do two calls 
today, we would do only one), but just removing it might be better. I'm going 
to create a jira for this.

But the function "getRowOrBefore" does create a TableName as well, so if we 
have 100K regions we will end up with 100K tableName objects, removing the 
prefetching will just make the creation slower.

I'm not a big fan of the solution I have here. Just that I don't have a better 
one :-)

> A profiling show that the table name is reponsible for 25% of the memory 
> needed to keep the region locations. As well, comparisons will be faster if 
> two identical table names are a single java object.
