Todd Lipcon commented on HDFS-1447: ----------------------------------- Also, what percent of startup time is devoted to CPU usage of this scan? In HDFS-2384 I uploaded a C program which does the block scan as efficiently as possible - but most of the gains there are from sorting by inum before statting. > Make getGenerationStampFromFile() more efficient, so it doesn't reprocess > full directory listing for every block > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-1447 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1447 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: data-node > Affects Versions: 0.20.2 > Reporter: Matt Foley > Assignee: Matt Foley > Attachments: HDFS-1447.patch, Test_HDFS_1447_NotForCommitt.java.patch > > > Make getGenerationStampFromFile() more efficient. Currently this routine is > called by addToReplicasMap() for every blockfile in the directory tree, and > it walks each file's containing directory on every call. There is a simple > refactoring that should make it more efficient. > This work item is one of four sub-tasks for HDFS-1443, Improve Datanode > startup time. > The fix will probably be folded into sibling task HDFS-1446, which is already > refactoring the method that calls getGenerationStampFromFile(). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
