John Zhuge commented on HDFS-11898:
-----------------------------------

Should we cap the total number of hedgedRead threads globally with a semaphore? 
It'd be safer even when the number of DFSClients gets out of hand and all the 
clients perform tons of hedged reads. This scenario may be possible when there 
is a network glitch.

Is the following Colin's comment in HDFS-5776 is still true?

bq. Unfortunately, the FileContext API creates a new DFSClient instance for 
each operation that it does.

> DFSClient#isHedgedReadsEnabled() should be per client flag

> DFSClient#isHedgedReadsEnabled() returns value based on static 
> {{HEDGED_READ_THREAD_POOL}}. 
> Hence if any of the client initialized this in JVM, all remaining client 
> reads will be going through hedged read itself.
> This flag should be per client value.
