------------------------------
HBASE-6720 seems to be a much less that his issue asks for (context appropriate
rate)

> We need 'smoothing' of balancer region move.... Yesterday we brought a
> regionserver back online into a smallish cluster that was under load and the
> balance run unloaded a bunch of regions all in the one go which put a dent in
> the throughput when a bunch of regions went offline at the one time. It'd be
> sweet if the balancer ran at a context appropriate 'rate'; when under load,
> it should move regions 'gently' rather than all as a big bang (the
> decommission script will move a region at a time, verifying it deployed in
> its new location before moving another... this can take ages to complete but
> its proven minimally disruptive to loadings)
