Devaraj Das commented on HADOOP-7115: ------------------------------------- It was the getpwuid calls leading to ldap outages in our major clusters (almost twice every week). After implementing this cache, we didn't have a single incident (and hopefully we will have none in the future too). The version of nscd on our clusters proved to be really unreliable. > Add a cache for getpwuid_r and getpwgid_r calls > ----------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-7115 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7115 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 0.22.0 > Reporter: Arun C Murthy > Assignee: Devaraj Das > > As discussed in HADOOP-6978, a cache helps a lot. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
