@milleruntime there are two cases: - A situation as @ivakegg described originally that results in many tablets empty or very small compared to the split size. - Over time you need to increase the split size and now all of your tablets are much smaller than it. A utility to do this periodically would work, however I'm not sure that alone would suffice since the tablets need to be offline when the merge occurs. Ideally Accumulo would only offline the tablets that need to be, but this would probably be very complicated. I can contribute the strategy I described above when I'm finished if that would be helpful. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
