   @junegunn Sorry for the late reply.
   
   To be precise: **this patch isn't deployed to production yet** (it's not 
merged). What we rolled out to production was a *configuration* workaround — 
`hbase.client.registry.impl=RpcConnectionRegistry` — which addresses the same 
KDC-load symptom by a different mechanism: connections then authenticate under 
the server's shared UGI `Subject`, so the service ticket is cached and reused 
instead of re-fetched per connection.
   
   We don't have Grafana/ES charts for this, but we did capture `tcpdump` on 
the KDC port (88) before/after the workaround on one production HMaster (~228 
tables) during a 5-minute snapshot-batch window:
   
   |  | Before (`ZKConnectionRegistry`) | After (`RpcConnectionRegistry`) |
   |---|---|---|
   | KDC TCP connections | 955 | 67 (**-93%**) |
   | `AS_REQ` (TGT) | 469 | 19 |
   | `TGS_REQ` (service ticket) | 486 | 48 |
   
   Before the change, a single KDC instance received ~486 requests in that 
window, which exceeded the KDC's rate limit and got the HMaster's IP blocked — 
the original symptom.
   
   One caveat on attribution: these numbers measure the **workaround**, not 
this patch directly. They do confirm that the snapshot `validate()` connection 
setup was the dominant source of KDC traffic — i.e. exactly the connections 
this patch removes. The difference is that the workaround *caches* tickets 
while this patch *eliminates* the redundant connections at the root, so this 
patch still helps deployments that keep the default `ZKConnectionRegistry`. I 
haven't produced a separate capture isolating only this patch's effect.
