------------------------------
Summary: Raise default minimum region split size
Key: HBASE-7084
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-7084
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: regionserver
Affects Versions: 0.96.0
Reporter: Harsh J
Priority: Trivial
Several times I've seen folks mentioning to raise region split sizes from the
default 256m to something more suitable (mostly folks say 1 GB, sometimes 2 GB,
more than other options), in order to control the # of regions explosion once
they begin heavy-hitting the tables.
Perhaps it makes sense to raise the default itself, since there are ways to
bring it down per-table if needed by some use-cases?
Opening this as a discussion first, since this "too many regions" trouble is
quite prevalent among newcomers.
