[jira] [Resolved] (HBASE-755) Add a method to retrieve the size and other information of a table

["Harsh J (Resolved) (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-755?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Harsh J resolved HBASE-755.
---------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

You should be able to retrieve 'dus' kind of results with Hadoop's FileSystem API itself. I think number of splits is a useful metric to show, but doesn't deserve an API. We can open a new JIRA if thats still not shown today.

> it would be good to have a method to obtain the size of a table - the total bytes of all HStore files in HDFS( hdfs://xxx/table name/column name/xxx/data), 
> and maybe other information like the number of splits etc.
> i think it's a simple but (probably) important aspect to evaluate a table.
