Hi Yves, 0.95.0 is a developer version. If you are starting with HBase, I will recommend you to choose a more stable version like 0.94.6.1.
Regarding the 3 choices you are listing below. 1) This one is HBase 0.95 running over Hadoop 1.0 2) This one is HBase 0.95 running over Hadoop 2.0 3) This one are the HBase source classes. Again, I think you are better to go with a stable version for the first steps: http://www.bizdirusa.com/mirrors/apache/hbase/stable/ Would you mind to retry you tests with this version and let me know if it's working better?
