---------------------------------

             Summary: SLB doesn't perform well with increase in number of 
regions
                 Key: HBASE-22300
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-22300
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Balancer
            Reporter: Biju Nair


With increase in number of regions in a cluster the number of steps taken by 
balancer in 30 sec (default balancer runtime) reduces noticeably. The following 
is the number of steps taken with by balancer with region loads set and running 
it without the loads being set i.e. cost functions using region loads are not 
fully exercised.

Nodes  regions  Tables    # of steps           # of steps 
                          with RS Load         With no load   
5       50       5        200000               200000
100     2000     110      104707               1000000                          
100     10000    40       19911                1000000                          
200     100000   400      870                  1000000                          
{noformat}
As one would expect the reduced number of steps also makes the balancer take 
long time to get to an optimal cost.
