Number of Locality Groups

[Mario Pastorelli <ma...@teralytics.ch>]

Hey guys,

I'm using a lot locality groups for columns in my tables to force Accumulo
to read only the column that it needs for a certain query. I realized that
right now I'm creating around 1k column families and I was wondering if
this could be an issue for Accumulo.

Thanks,
Mario

I don't think this would be an issue, but the "norm" is definitely 1's 
to 10's of locality groups. Having thousands might uncovered some 
implementation issues that we have not seen before :). Architecturally, 
though, I can't think of an issue.
