> I was thinking about balancing, in much the way that new container-based
> (yarn, mesos, etc) resource managers work. The existing {{Balancers}} try to
> keep the number of tablets even over presumably homogeneous nodes.
> But as clusters age and are improved and expanded in piecemeal, the hardware
> capabilities will drift apart. Some nodes may be capable of handling more
> load than others. We may even want some nodes to have a trivial number of
> tablets so the data they serve is always cached.
> Tablet servers could advertise an attribute (or several). Really, it would
> just be a name, like {{fatnode}} or {{metaonly}}. These would then be used
> by the {{Balancer}} to favor or ignore tservers for balancing.
