Zhihong Yu commented on HBASE-4991:
-----------------------------------
We should consider extensibility of our design.
bq. Master is just asking the regionservers to close regions
Since we're going to permit the deletion of multiple regions, the above
operation may take some time. Especially when cluster is under load.
bq. Master can create regions and do the moving of data from old regions into
new
One optimization we're doing w.r.t. distributed log splitting is to move
certain step from master to region server. The above may not scale when
multiple regions are requested to be deleted.
> Provide capability to delete named region
