Jean-Daniel Cryans commented on HBASE-4374:
-------------------------------------------

bq. In old days there used to be an optimal balance to be struck between flush 
size, compaction size and region split size. 

IMO something that radically screws this up is compression. I've been 
experimenting with 2GB memstore flush size on a LZO'd table and saw radically 
better write performance.

I think it would be good that we bring the flush size up as we bring up the 
split size, since this means less regions per RS leaving room for bigger and 
more efficient Memstores.
                
> Up default regions size from 256M to 1G

> HBASE-4365 has some discussion of why we default for a table should tend to 
> fewer bigger regions.  It doesn't look like this issue will be done for 0.92. 
>  For 0.92, lets up default region size from 256M to 1G and talk up pre-split 
> on table creation in manual.
