Setting block caching on such a table is a waste of memory and CPU cycles, more so that it will generate more garbage to pick up by the JVM.
For more information on monitoring GC, see <<trouble.log.gc>>.
* Mapping a table: In a typical MapReduce job that takes a table in input, every row will be read only once so there's no need to put them into the block cache.

The Scan object has the option of turning this off via the setCacheBlocks method (set it to false). You can still keep block caching turned on on this table if you need fast random read access.
