Jonathan Gray commented on HBASE-1619:
--------------------------------------

Doesn't this raise the instantiable Bytes vs continuing down the unpleasant road of IBW question?  See, I can't even write it out!

> Change the familyMap<byte[], List<KeyValue>> in put to  familyMap<ImmutableBytesWritable, List<KeyValue>>

> While working on the HBase tap and scheme for Cascading I came across a situation where you want to add a bunch of KeyValues to a Put object.
> Looking at the code for putting KeyValues in put we copy the family from the KeyValue and use that as a key. So I was thinking that it might be a good idea to just "point"
> into the KV by using a ImmutableBytesWritable and use that as the key instead. This is going to be good when working with MR jobs.
