I think you could do it manually by looking up all the different regions and starting a separate scan for each region. Not quite as handy as the built-in multi get, but essentially the same.
Of course, that leaves the question of processing-- If you're processing it in a single-threaded environment, HBase is unlikely to be the bottleneck. If your sending each scan to multiple processors, this could be a significant speedup. --Tom On Mon, Jul 30, 2012 at 11:34 PM, Bertrand Dechoux <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > Are you talking about as coprocessor or MapReduce input?
