Francis Liu commented on HBASE-12233:
-------------------------------------
Thanks for the feedback guys. Just to reiterate, we do have a real need to
scale and we will improve/fix what's necessary be it on hbase, hdfs, or infra
to meet that need. So far based on our experimentation and experience from
actual large cluster deployments, it is hbase that is preventing us from
scaling to our expected needs and splitting meta is the clear solution.

We could try this just with a 0.98 based feature branch and determine if it's
worth pursuing further and elsewhere.

[~apurtell] Thanks for volunteering. Is this a feature branch used to determine
whether it is worthwhile to bring back root (and split meta) or a feature
branch to determine whether it is feasible to backport it to 0.98? What would
be the measure of success?
IMHO a 0.98 feature branch should be enough as a proving ground for either
scenario.
