Jay Booth updated HDFS-918:
---------------------------

    Attachment: hdfs-918-branch20.2.patch

Cleaned up a bug in the BlockChannelPool.cleanup() code, added new unit test, 
improved descriptions of new config values (useMultiplex, packetSize, 
maxOpenBlockChannels, minOpenBlockchannels (number to cleanup() to)).

This patch is for branch 20, I'll post a new one against trunk tonight.

> Use single Selector and small thread pool to replace many instances of 
> BlockSender for reads

> Currently, on read requests, the DataXCeiver server allocates a new thread 
> per request, which must allocate its own buffers and leads to 
> higher-than-optimal CPU and memory usage by the sending threads.  If we had a 
> single selector and a small threadpool to multiplex request packets, we could 
> theoretically achieve higher performance while taking up fewer resources and 
> leaving more CPU on datanodes available for mapred, hbase or whatever.  This 
> can be done without changing any wire protocols.
