Sergey Shelukhin updated HBASE-8700:
------------------------------------

    Description: 
The test can fail due to random number collision, claiming there are 
unreferenced elements for obvious reasons (we rewrite some link). Original 
Accumulo test has one-stage generation so it doesn't count unreferenced 
elements as failures, only undefined ones. With 200m longs out of half-long 
range the probability of collision is approx 0.2%.

Moreover, without some way to debug, it's hard to debug what keys should be 
looked at in such cases

  was:We have a failure in the above test where one element is missing yet it 
is not referenced-undefined, so it looks like a head of the list with previous 
element disappearing; however such an eventuality would require a link from 
tail to head to also disappear (otherwise there'd be a referenced-undefined 
element), which is quite a coincidence. Without some way to debug, it's hard to 
debug what keys should be looked at.
