> When a seek/reseek is done on StoreFileScanner, in addition to setting the current KV, it also does a HFileScanner level next() ahead of time even if the next KV is never actually required. This inefficiency can potentially result in additional disk seeks and sub-optimal use of the block cache (primarily for cases where the KVs are large and each occupies an HFile block of its own).
