stack commented on HBASE-1505:
------------------------------

Turns out, we do seek and then read rather than pread.  I had it wrong way 
around.  We should look into this.

> [performance] hfile should change how it reads from hdfs -- pread/seek+read 
> -- dependent on recent history

> hfile preads all the time at moment.  its good we do this when we want to up 
> our random reads.  but apparently pread involves open socket, seek, read, 
> close socket whereas seek+read could leave us aligned at next block to read 
> and make for some savings.  hfile could have a short memory and change how it 
> pulls from hdfs dependent on recent history.
