Todd Lipcon updated HDFS-918:
-----------------------------

    Component/s: performance
    
> Use single Selector and small thread pool to replace many instances of 
> BlockSender for reads

> Currently, on read requests, the DataXCeiver server allocates a new thread 
> per request, which must allocate its own buffers and leads to 
> higher-than-optimal CPU and memory usage by the sending threads.  If we had a 
> single selector and a small threadpool to multiplex request packets, we could 
> theoretically achieve higher performance while taking up fewer resources and 
> leaving more CPU on datanodes available for mapred, hbase or whatever.  This 
> can be done without changing any wire protocols.
