He Tianyi commented on HDFS-8829:
---------------------------------

This affects pipeline throughput, and I've observed a 30% performance gain with 
tcp auto-tuning enabled. 
(since 128KB window size is not always optimal)

Could be particularly useful with SSD drives (where disk throughput may be 
greater than net throughput).


> DataNode sets SO_RCVBUF explicitly is disabling tcp auto-tuning

> The last line sets SO_RCVBUF explicitly, thus disabling tcp auto-tuning on 
> some system.
> Shall we make this behavior configurable?
