Andrew Purtell updated HBASE-13090:
-----------------------------------
Description:
It can be necessary to set very long timeouts for clients that issue scans over
large regions when all data in the region might be filtered out depending on
scan criteria. This is a usability concern because it can be hard to identify
what worst case timeout to use until scans are occasionally/intermittently
failing in production, depending on variable scan criteria. It would be better
if the client-server scan protocol can send back periodic progress heartbeats
to clients as long as server scanners are alive and making progress.
This is related but orthogonal to streaming scan (HBASE-13071).
