> [~ecn] asked me after I committed a fix for ACCUMULO-3967 "why didn't randomwalk catch this bug?"
> I think we could potentially have caught this if in Setup we pre-split the table to be a large collection of sequentially increasing tablets. It's not a guarantee catch (since the bug itself was only shown in the case of import failures and the tablet distribution hasn't changed).
> Alternatively, we could copy the existing bulk module into a new module. In this module, we remove the splitting and merging, instead keeping a static split distribution. This would be almost guaranteed to eventually recreate the scenario. Adding in a chaotic balancer, even more likely to reproduce.
