> In the light of HDFS-6735 we might want to consider refraining from seek +
> read completely and only perform preads.
> For example currently a compaction can lock out every other scanner over the
> file which the compaction is currently reading for compaction.
> At the very least we can introduce an option to avoid seek + read, so we can
> allow testing this in various scenarios.
> This will definitely be of great importance for projects like Phoenix which
> parallelize queries intra region (and hence readers will used concurrently by
> multiple scanner with high likelihood.)
