+1, http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/12346511/processBlockReport3.patch applied and successfully tested against trunk revision r483294 > The memory consumption of processReport() in the namenode can be reduced > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HADOOP-764 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-764 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Bug > Components: dfs > Reporter: dhruba borthakur > Assigned To: dhruba borthakur > Attachments: processBlockReport3.patch > > > The FSNamesystem.processReport() method converts the blocklist for a datanode > into an array by calling node.getBlocks(). Although this memory allocation is > transient, it could possibly require the garbage-collector to work that much > harder. > The method Block.getBlocks() should be deprecated. Code that currently uses > this method should instead iterate over the Collection. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
