Ted Yu commented on HBASE-3679:
-------------------------------

>From Anty Rao:
When doing balance, Can we take into account the compaction status of regions.
Currently, even the region is doing compaction, it can also be interrupted
to response to reassign.

> Provide cost information associated with moving region(s)

> In order for load balancer to make better decision, we need to establish cost model for moving region(s).
> One factor would be the number of active scanners on a particular region.
> This count is easy to maintain at HRegion level. instantiateInternalScanner() can increment the counter and RegionScanner.close() would decrement the count.
