Nick Dimiduk commented on HBASE-11682:
--------------------------------------
>From the conversations on user list I've seen, "salt" tends to mean "prepend
>with some fixed-byte-length value, usually a modulo of the number of
>regionservers" -- the same as your "striping". I've also seen lazy people
>prepend with the first N bytes of the hashed rowkey, hence my loose language
>in the previous comment.
