Eli Collins commented on HDFS-1061:
-----------------------------------

Patch lgtm. I wonder if we should limit the number of bits for replicas - 64k 
seems is overkill and this would leave space for an additional field. Perhaps 
we just cross that bridge when we come to it.

Looking at the console output it looks like the failures are due to a maven 
issue. Let's just cancel and resubmit the patch. It applies to trunk on my 
local tree and ant test-core is running ok so far.

> I am proposing a footprint optimization to merge blockReplication and 
> preferredBlockSize fields into one 'long header' field in INodeFile class. 
> This saves 8 bytes per INodeFile object on a 64 bit JVM. This memory 
> optimization is transparent and changes are very minimal.
