Anoop Sam John commented on HBASE-23035:
----------------------------------------
Ya I have seen this retainAssign stuff in 1.x based clusters. What I mean is
in some parts of AM, we have configs which takes whether locality is to be
considered and so calc based on that.. So ya a locality sensitive cluster can
have such a config (new may be) turned ON.
> Retain region to the last RegionServer make the failover slower

> Now if one RS crashed, the regions will try to use the old location for the
> region deploy. But one RS only have 3 threads to open region by default. If a
> RS have hundreds of regions, the failover is very slower. Assign to same RS
> may have good locality if the Datanode is deploied on same host. But slower
> failover make the availability worse. And the locality is not big deal when
> deploy HBase on cloud.
> This was introduced by HBASE-18946.
