Colin Patrick McCabe commented on HDFS-8829:
--------------------------------------------

{{DFSClient#dataSocketRecvBufferSize}} seems not to be used anywhere.

Since the main performance benefit you saw was with setting the DataNode 
receive buffer size, how about just creating 
{{dfs.datanode.transfer.socket.send.buffer.size}} and 
{{dfs.datanode.transfer.socket.recv.buffer.size}} that are explicitly just for 
{{DataTransferProtocol}} on the {{DataNode}}?  Then we can avoid making any 
changes to the DFSClient in this patch.

"This may effect TCP connection throughput." should be "This may affect TCP 
connection throughput."

> DataNode sets SO_RCVBUF explicitly is disabling tcp auto-tuning
