Rashmi Vinayak commented on HADOOP-11828:
-----------------------------------------

Hi [~zhz],
Regarding you second question:
bq. 2. Could SUB_PACKET_SIZE be other than 2? If so, should we still keep it as 
a variable?
Sub-packet-size is always 2 in Hitchhiker. So we may perhaps have it as a 
constant?

> [Hitchhiker | 
> http://www.eecs.berkeley.edu/~nihar/publications/Hitchhiker_SIGCOMM14.pdf] is 
> a new erasure coding algorithm developed as a research project at UC 
> Berkeley. It has been shown to reduce network traffic and disk I/O by 25%-45% 
> during data reconstruction while retaining the same storage capacity and 
> failure tolerance capability as RS codes. This JIRA aims to introduce 
> Hitchhiker to the HDFS-EC framework, as one of the pluggable codec algorithms.
> The existing implementation is based on HDFS-RAID.
