hehe J-D (hopefully first name!) I agree with your point that pre-splitting the table can make a big difference.
Do the later versions of 'PerformanceEvaluation' class has an option to pre-split the table? I remember, when I ran this for the first time, only one region server is busy until the table split. But second time around, all the region-servers were hit with requests. I just peeked at the code for this class, and it does NOT truncate the table. So subsequent runs benefit from split tables already. And it looks like it is overriding the rows. ** So I will mention this, and say to ignore the first run and only measure subsequent runs. what do you think? ** thanks for your feedback.
