For root table, I thought the previous problems about meta table will become 
the problems about root table. root table should be splitable? If root table 
cannot splitable, which regionserver to host root table's region, a isolated 
region or share with user regions? In our production use case (300+ 
RegionServer, 200K+ Regions, 1K+ tables), the meta region is isolated on one 
regionserver, not share with the user regions. This is a waste of machine, but 
for better stability. And we have many hack logic for meta regions, such as 
assign meta first, donot replicate meta wal, balancer give a bigger weight for 
meta region, the new root table need all these hack, too? You can found these 
by grep isMetaTable or isMetaRegion calls in our codebase...

Have you tried regionserver groups? In our deploy we isolated it by having a 
system regionserver group which hosts all the system tables (root, meta, etc).
