> The newly added global switch to enable the new normalizer functionality is never used apparently, meaning it is always on. The {{hbase-default.xml}} has this:
> {noformat}
>   <property>
>     <name>hbase.normalizer.enabled</name>
>     <value>false</value>
>     <description>If set to true, Master will try to keep region size
>       within each table approximately the same.</description>
>   </property>
> {noformat}
> But only a test class uses it to set the switch to "true". We should implement a proper {{if}} statement that checks this value and properly disables the feature cluster wide if not wanted.
