Daniel Templeton commented on HADOOP-13254:
-------------------------------------------
[~rkanter], if an instance is creating threads in the constructor, that would
make it a very naughty instance indeed. Without an API that allows for a clean
shutdown, creating threads is a risky proposition. I agree with [~yufeigu]
that when it comes to adding threads, whoever wants to add threads should
change the API to include start and stop methods. Since we can't make any
guarantees about what future contributors will do, I also agree that being more
defensive isn't a bad idea. The cheapest solution I see is to use locks.
