Alejandro Abdelnur created HDFS-3513:
----------------------------------------
Summary: HttpFS should cache filesystems
Key: HDFS-3513
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-3513
Project: Hadoop HDFS
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 2.0.0-alpha
Reporter: Alejandro Abdelnur
HttpFS opens and closes a FileSystem instance against the backend filesystem
(typically HDFS) on every request. The FileSystem caching is not used as it
does not have expiration/timeout and filesystem instances in there live
forever, for long running services like HttpFS this is not a good thing as it
would keep connections open to the NN.
