[jira] [Reopened] (ACCUMULO-770) TableLoadBalancer / DefaultLoadBalancer assigns tables unevenly

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-770?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

John Vines reopened ACCUMULO-770:
---------------------------------


On Ubuntu systems, tests are inconsistently failing. Occured on both Ubuntu 12.04 and 12.10 Beta2 with openjdk as well as Oracle java 6u35. Was able to recreate with just running junit tests in eclipse, as well as maven runs.

> During assignment, each table balancer starts assigning tablets in order.  This ensures the the "lowest" tabletserver gets at least one tablet for each table.  This can make for an unbalanced cluster when there are many small tables.  Randomize the list of tablets in the DefaultLoadBalancer to evenly distribute tablets on a new cluster.
