[jira] [Updated] (HBASE-3373) Allow regions to be load-balanced by table

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3373?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Ted Yu updated HBASE-3373:
--------------------------

    Release Note: 
There is a parameter, hbase.regions.slop, with default value of 0.2
This parameter allows actual region count to deviate by this percentage from (ideal) average region count.

> From our experience, cluster can be well balanced and yet, one table's regions may be badly concentrated on few region servers.
> For example, one table has 839 regions (380 regions at time of table creation) out of which 202 are on one server.
> It would be desirable for load balancer to distribute regions for specified tables evenly across the cluster. Each of such tables has number of regions many times the cluster size.
