Keith Turner commented on ACCUMULO-542:
---------------------------------------

For 1.5 we may want to consider switching the old code the reads directly from the root tablet to user a scanner.  Also we noticed the code was reading everything in the root tablet after the tablet of interest.  This is completely unnecessary.

>         Environment: large cluster with 390+ metadata data tablets
>            Reporter: Eric Newton

>            Priority: Critical
>             Fix For: 1.3.6

> Trying to bring up a large cluster, metadata tablets failed to load. These metadata tablets were trying to read their entries from the root tablet.
> Workaround is to double the memory used for scanning the !METADATA table:
> {noformat}
> shell> config -t !METADATA -s table.scan.max.memory=2M
> {noformat}
> Nothing needs to be done: the tablet servers will recover as soon as this value is changed.
