Do you observe some log like "Too many hlogs" before flushing a few dozen KB log ? Just want to double-check it's weather a forcing flush issue or not:)

Hi folks, we're currently running CDH4.1.2 (HBase 0.92 + patches). Looking through the logs, I'm seeing that some tables are flushing at much lower size than others (a few dozen KB as opposed to the expected 128 MB). Looking through some of great case studies like [1], [2], and [3], it's not clear to me why this is happening. We're using the defaults for upper, lower limits (0.35 and 0.40, respectively), and the RS status pages show that we're only using 25% of our memstore allocation. Our regions/RS ratio is currently at 60-70. We do have some other tables online where column families are skewed heavily sizewise -- could this be causing other tables in our cluster to flush more frequently than others?
