Zhihong Yu commented on HBASE-4365:
-----------------------------------
Thanks for the patch.
{code}
+ boolean force = region.shouldForceSplit();
{code}
shouldSplit() can return immediately if force is true, right ?
{code}
+ foundABigStore = true;
+ }
{code}
We can break out of the for loop when foundABigStore becomes true.
Validation in real cluster is appreciated.

> A few of us were brainstorming this morning about what the default region
> size should be. There were a few general points made:
> - in some ways it's better to be too-large than too-small, since you can
> always split a table further, but you can't merge regions currently
> - with HFile v2 and multithreaded compactions there are fewer reasons to
> avoid very-large regions (10GB+)
> - for small tables you may want a small region size just so you can
> distribute load better across a cluster
> - for big tables, multi-GB is probably best
