    Affects Versions: 0.99.2, 0.94.25, 0.98.8
            Reporter: Vladimir Rodionov

We are seeing this behavior when creating indexes in one of our environment.

When an index is being created, most of the "requests" go into a single region.  The amount of time to create an index seems to take longer than usual and it can take days for the regions to compact and split after the index is created.

Here is a du of the HBase index table:

{code}
-bash-4.1$ sudo -su hdfs hadoop fs -du /hbase/43681
705          /hbase/43681/.tableinfo.0000000001
0            /hbase/43681/.tmp
