Aaron Kimball commented on HADOOP-5958: --------------------------------------- I'm not an interface fan myself. But the existing {{DF}} class already uses {{Shell}} as an abstract base class. That means we'd need to put most of the current DF's logic into some other class that extends Shell; maybe a private inner class? +1 for a factory method. > Use JDK 1.6 File APIs in DF.java wherever possible > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-5958 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-5958 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Bug > Components: fs > Reporter: Devaraj Das > Fix For: 0.21.0 > > > JDK 1.6 has File APIs like File.getFreeSpace() which should be used instead > of spawning a command process for getting the various disk/partition related > attributes. This would avoid spikes in memory consumption by tasks when > things like LocalDirAllocator is used for creating paths on the filesystem. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
