Wei-Chiu Chuang commented on HDFS-11187:
----------------------------------------

Regarding the rev002 of the branch-2 patch – the code in 
{{FsVolumeImpl#addFinalizedBlock()}} meant to copy the in-memory checksum of 
rbw replica to the in-memory checksum of finalized replica. Your patch forces 
the finalized replica to load checksum from disk and that could cause extra 
disk access.

> Optimize disk access for last partial chunk checksum of Finalized replica

> The patch at HDFS-11160 ensures BlockSender reads the correct version of 
> metafile when there are concurrent writers.
> However, the implementation is not optimal, because it must always read the 
> last partial chunk checksum from disk while holding FsDatasetImpl lock for 
> every reader. It is possible to optimize this by keeping an up-to-date 
> version of last partial checksum in-memory and reduce disk access.
> I am separating the optimization into a new jira, because maintaining the 
> state of in-memory checksum requires a lot more work.
