-----------------------------------------
Steve, do you have any idea if there are some plans to upgrade commons-net
package across hadoop. We are using 3.1 which is several years old and updating
to new version can solve some issues and possibly let us implement for example
better proxy support
> New implementation of ftp and sftp filesystems

> Current implementation of FTP and SFTP filesystems have severe limitations
> and performance issues when dealing with high number of files. Mine patch
> solve those issues and integrate both filesystems such a way that most of the
> core functionality is common for both and therefore simplifying the
> maintainability.
> The core features:
> * Support for HTTP/SOCKS proxies
> * Support for passive FTP
> * Support for explicit FTPS (SSL/TLS)
> * Support of connection pooling - new connection is not created for every
> single command but reused from the pool.
> For huge number of files it shows order of magnitude performance improvement
> over not pooled connections.
> * Caching of directory trees. For ftp you always need to list whole directory
> whenever you ask information about particular file.
> Again for huge number of files it shows order of magnitude performance
> improvement over not cached connections.
> * Support of keep alive (NOOP) messages to avoid connection drops
> * Support for Unix style or regexp wildcard glob - useful for listing a
> particular files across whole directory tree
> * Support for reestablishing broken ftp data transfers - can happen
> surprisingly often
