>
> If there are two bulkloaded hfiles in a region with same seqID and duplicate 
> keys*, get and scan may return different values for a key.
> More details:
> - one of the rows had 200k+ columns. say row is 'r', column family is 'cf' 
> and column qualifiers are 1 to 1000.
> - hfiles were split somewhere along that row, but there were a range of 
> columns in both hfiles. For eg, something like - hfile1: ["",  r:cf:70) and 
> hfile2: [r:cf:40, ....).
> - Between columns 40 to 70, some (not all) columns were in both the files 
> with different values. Whereas other were only in one of the files.
> In such a case, depending on file size (because we take it into account when 
> sorting hfiles internally), we may get different values for the same cell 
> (say "r", "cf:50") depending on what we call: get "r" "cf:50" or get "r" 
> "cf:".
> I have been able to replicate this issue, will post the instructions shortly.
> * not sure how this would happen. These files are small ~50M, nor could i 
> find any setting for max file size that could lead to splits. Need to 
> investigate more.
