> The default block placement policy will choose datanodes for new blocks 
> randomly, which will result in unbalanced space used percent among datanodes 
> after an cluster expansion. The old datanodes always are in high used percent 
> of space and new added ones are in low percent.
> Through we can used the external balance tool to balance the space used rate, 
> it will cost extra network IO and it's not easy to control the balance speed.
> An easy solution is to implement an balanced block placement policy which 
> will choose low used percent datanodes for new blocks with a little high 
> possibility. In a not long term, the used percent of datanodes will trend to 
> be balanced.
> Suggestions and discussions are welcomed. Thanks
