---------------------------------------
Summary: Rename scanner caching to a more semantically correct
term such as row limit
Key: HBASE-13442
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-13442
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Sub-task
Reporter: Jonathan Lawlor
Caching acts more as a limit now. By default in branch-1+, a Scan is configured
with (caching=Integer.MAX_VALUE, maxResultSize=2MB) so that we service scans on
the basis of buffer size rather than number of rows. As a result, caching
should now only be configured in instances where the user knows that they will
only need X rows. Thus, caching should be renamed to something that is more
semantically correct such as rowLimit.
