If deleting data is something you do regularly, consider using the AgeOff iterator (or similar customer iterator based on your data) to keep older data systematically purged with the compactions. This way you don't incur the overhead of one large batch process.
-----Original Message----- From: BlackJack76 [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, May 12, 2014 8:31 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Delete All Data In Table Besides using the tableOperations to deleteRows or delete the table entirely, what is the fastest way to delete all data in a table? I am currently using a BatchDeleter but it is extremely slow when I have a large amount of data. Any better options? I don't want to use the tableOperations because both the deleteRows and delete blow away the splits. I would like to keep the splits in place.
