The Import.java in the package org.apache.hadoop.hbase.mapreduce.  This
comes along with the src code.

Have you tried the option of using the SingleColumnValueFilter.  One thing
you need to note that the if you are going for a search on the entire table
then all the regions has to be scanned but using this filter will return
only the rows that satisfy the specified condition, but as you are trying
go with Mapreduce these mapper tasks run paralleley on the regions.

Ram
