There are a lot of discussions here regarding the row design but I have a
question about the value design:

Say I have a table t1 with rows r1,r2...rn and family f.
I also have qualifiers q1,q2...,qm

For each (ri,fi,qi) tuple I want to store a value vi that is a data blob
that implements Writable and has two members:
Integer countInt
Float countFloat

Would you change the design so that I'll have 2m qualifiers i.e.,
q1_countInt and q1_countFloat etc.
with IntWritable and FloatWritable values (respectively) ? or stay with the
data blob ?

Thanks,

Amit.
