Jorge Machado commented on HDFS-9924:
-------------------------------------

Any ideas how to improve the hdfs dfs put command with async io ? Or I'm I in 
the wrong thread. From what I saw here 
[https://github.com/apache/hadoop/blob/trunk/hadoop-common-project/hadoop-common/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/io/IOUtils.java#L129]
 Copy Commands still uses blocking io right ?

> This is an umbrella JIRA for supporting Nonblocking HDFS Access.
> Currently, all the API methods are blocking calls -- the caller is blocked 
> until the method returns.  It is very slow if a client makes a large number 
> of independent calls in a single thread since each call has to wait until the 
> previous call is finished.  It is inefficient if a client needs to create a 
> large number of threads to invoke the calls.
> We propose adding a new API to support nonblocking calls, i.e. the caller is 
> not blocked.  The methods in the new API immediately return a Java Future 
> object.  The return value can be obtained by the usual Future.get() method.
