> Scans have the ability to have a configured max result size, which causes them to return a partial result once the limit has been reached. MultiGets also can throw MultiActionResultTooLarge if the response size is over a configured quota. Neither of these really accounts for a single Get of a too-large row. Such too-large Gets can cause substantial GC pressure or worse if sent at volume.
> Currently one can work around this by converting their Get to a single row Scan, but this requires a developer to proactively know about and prepare for the issue by using a Scan upfront or wait for the RegionServer to choke on a large request and only then rewrite the Get for future requests.
> We should implement the same response size limits for for Get as for Scan, whereby the server returns a partial result to the client for handling.
