Eli Collins commented on HADOOP-9194:
-------------------------------------

This is why HDFS has a separate port for "service" IPC, allows you do to 
port-based QOS (see HDFS-599)
                
> RPC Support for QoS

> One of the next frontiers of Hadoop performance is QoS (Quality of Service). 
> We need QoS support to fight the inevitable "buffer bloat" (including various 
> queues, which are probably necessary for throughput) in our software stack. 
> This is important for mixed workload with different latency and throughput 
> requirements (e.g. OLTP vs OLAP, batch and even compaction I/O) against the 
> same DFS.
> Any potential bottleneck will need to be managed by QoS mechanisms, starting 
> with RPC. 
> How about adding a one byte DS (differentiated services) field (a la the 
> 6-bit DS field in IP header) in the RPC header to facilitate the QoS 
> mechanisms (in separate JIRAs)? The byte at a fixed offset (how about 0?) of 
> the header is helpful for implementing high performance QoS mechanisms in 
> switches (software or hardware) and servers with minimum decoding effort.
