Hi,

If I am running the following call:

Get get = new Get(row);
get.setFilter(new ColumnPaginationFilter(50, 0));

Does this load the entire row into memory ? Or will it only try to fetch as
much as needed (basically load only the relevant hfile blocks into block
cache instead of loading all the hfile blocks containing the row) ?

Thanks
Varun

ColumnPaginationFilter wouldn't load the entire row into memory:

  public ReturnCode filterKeyValue(KeyValue v)

  {

    if(count >= offset + limit)

    {

      return ReturnCode.NEXT_ROW;

    }
Cheers
