> It looks like HTableMultiplexer has a couple of issues.
> Upon failing to send a Put to the appropriate RS, the Put is re-queued back
> into the system. Normally this is fine as such an exception is transient and
> the Put would eventually succeed. However, in the case where the Put was
> rejected because of a NotServingRegionException (e.g. split, balance, merge),
> the re-queuing of the Put will end up using the same cached HRegionLocation.
> This means that the Put will just be repeatedly sent back to the same RS over
> and over again, eventually being dropped on the floor. Need to invalidate the
> location cache (or make sure we refresh it) when we re-queue the Put.
> The internal ClusterConnection is also leaked. If a user creates many
> HTableMultiplexers, they'll eventually run into issues (memory, zk
> connections, etc) because they'll never get cleaned up. HTableMultiplexer
> needs a close method.
