[jira] Commented: (HBASE-1676) load balancing on a large cluster doesn't work very well

["Jonathan Gray (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-1676?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12904922#action_12904922 ] 

Jonathan Gray commented on HBASE-1676:
--------------------------------------

There are standalone tests of the new load balancer!  This is open against 0.90.  Do we want to close it or what exactly is the scope of this jira?  IMO this is done, other stuff can be handled in "smart" load balancing and other open jiras.

> I have 200 regions per server in my cluster.  When I take one down, then bring it back up, I only end up with about 30 regions assigned to it.  This is highly reproducible.
> Furthermore, the assignment algorithm will do silly things like assign all regions of a table to one regionserver - even if it's the best server.  We need to be smarter about optimizing how regions are assigned if we want to achieve maximal performance on our clusters.
