Dmytro Molkov commented on HDFS-1194:
-------------------------------------

We updated our jetty to 6.1.24, but it also had some issues that were fixed in 
6.1.25
What do people think? Should we update all the packages to have newer version 
of jetty as a dependency?

> One of the symptoms: the transfer becomes really slow (it does 700 kb/s) when

> I was taking jstacks of the namenode while the transfer is in process and we

> Based on this it is obvious we are hitting a jetty workaround for a JVM bug 
> that doesn't handle select() properly.
> There is a jetty JIRA for this http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JETTY-937 (it 
> actually introduces the workaround for the JVM bug that we are hitting)
> They say that the problem was fixed in 6.1.22, there is a person on that JIRA 
> also saying that switching to using SocketConnector instead of 
> SelectChannelConnector helped in their case.
> Since we are hitting the same bug in our world we should either adopt the 
> newer Jetty version where there is a better workaround, but it might not help 
> if we are still hitting that bug constantly, the workaround might be better 
> though.
> Another approach is to switch to using SocketConnector which will eliminate 
> the problem completely, although I am not sure what problems that will bring.
> The java version we are running is in Environment
> Any thoughts
