Hi, I've noticed there are two settings available when using the HBase balancer (specifically the default stochastic balancer)
hbase.master.balancer.stochastic.tableSkewCost hbase.master.loadbalance.bytable How do these two settings relate? The documentation indicates when using the stochastic balancer that 'bytable' should be set to false? Our deployment relies on very few, very large tables, and I've noticed bad distribution when accessing some of the tables. E.g. there are 443 regions for a single table, but when doing a MR job over a full scan of the table, the first 426 regions scan quickly (minutes), but the remaining 17 regions take significantly longer (hours) My expectation is to have the balancer equalize the size of the regions for each table. Thanks! - Nasron
