Luke Lu commented on HADOOP-4379:
---------------------------------
@dhruba: unfortunately the patch (applied to the stock 0.19.0) didn't work. The
files did show non-zero size after the sync but they're all 7 bytes. Restarting
HDFS make the correct content show up.
> In HDFS, sync() not yet guarantees data available to the new readers
