He Tianyi created HADOOP-13390: ---------------------------------- Summary: GC pressure of NetworkTopology.isAncestor call can be eliminated Key: HADOOP-13390 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-13390 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Improvement Components: net Affects Versions: 2.7.0, 2.6.0, 2.8.0 Reporter: He Tianyi Priority: Minor
{{NetworkTopology.isAncestor}} is called in {{NetworkTopology.getLeaf}}, which is excessively used in block placement policies ({{chooseRandom}} for example). Currently, the implementation calls {{getPath}} twice. And {{getPath}} performs string concatenation on the fly. On a busy NameNode, this introduces more GC pressure and CPU overhead for block allocation. Given that network location and node name does not generally change frequently, we can cache path as a properly of {{Node}} and update accordingly while network location or node name is changing. Also, one of these {{getPath}} calls in {{getLeaf}} can be eliminated because we are expecting identical result in both calls. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: common-issues-unsubscr...@hadoop.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: common-issues-h...@hadoop.apache.org
