[jira] [Commented] (ACCUMULO-625) consider augmenting session state with "breadcrumbs"

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-625?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13544316#comment-13544316 ] 

An commented on ACCUMULO-625:
-----------------------------

Hi is there any update on this or is there any kind of work around? Not being able to hold state in the iterator is a big limitation.

> Presently, the iterator stack can be created and destroyed at the whim of the tserver and its buffering needs.  In complex iterations, lower-level iterators can make significant progress which is not inherently obvious in any returned key.  When the iterator stack is re-created to continue a query, the last key returned is used to {{seek()}} the iterators.  Lower-level iterators must re-scan their data to move back to the old position.
> Consider a mechanism to save progress beyond the last key returned.
