Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-2154:
--------------------------------------

I think you meant:

|  the original data (not partitioned into chunks) | *crcs* for for the 
original data |

I.e., there will be a crc for each chunk in the original data, but the original 
data will not be broken into chunks.  Is that right?


> Non-interleaved checksums would optimize block transfers.

>    Affects Versions: 0.14.0

> Currently when a block is transfered to a data-node the client interleaves 
> data chunks with the respective checksums. 
> This requires creating an extra copy of the original data in a new buffer 
> interleaved with the crcs.
> We can avoid extra copying if the data and the crc are fed to the socket one 
> after another.
