dhruba borthakur commented on HADOOP-2649: ------------------------------------------ Hi hairong, thanks for ur review comments. I plan to make this period dymanic (as per your suggestion) in the jira that is linked to this issue HADOOP-2606. > The ReplicationMonitor sleep period should be configurable > ---------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-2649 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2649 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Bug > Components: dfs > Reporter: dhruba borthakur > Assignee: dhruba borthakur > Fix For: 0.16.0 > > Attachments: configurableReplicationPeriod.patch > > > The HDFS Namenode computes replication work for datanodes once every 3 > seconds. This should be a configurable value. On large clusters, there could > be many many blocks in the neededReplication queue and computing replication > work for datanodes once every 3 seconds might consume lots of CPU on namenode. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
