> The typical use case of RowCounter is to do some kind of data integrity
> checking, like after exporting some data from RDBMS to HBase, or from one
> HBase cluster to another, making sure the row(record) number matches. Such
> check commonly won't require much on response time.
> Meanwhile, based on current impl, RowCounter will launch one mapper per
> region, and each mapper will send one scan request. Assuming the table is
> kind of big like having tens of regions, and the cpu core number of the whole
> MR cluster is also enough, the parallel scan requests sent by mapper would be
> a real burden for the HBase cluster.
> So in this JIRA, we're proposing to make rowcounter support an additional
> option "--maps" to specify mapper number, and make each mapper able to scan
> more than one region of the target table.
