This is currently > achieved by using the ObserverReadProxyProvider. > Using ObserverReadProxyProvider allows backward compatible for client > configurations. > However, the ObserverReadProxyProvider forces an msync on initialization > which is not required with routers. > Performing msync calls is more expensive with routers because the router fans > out the cal to all namespaces, so we'd like to avoid this. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: hdfs-issues-unsubscr...@hadoop.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: hdfs-issues-h...@hadoop.apache.org
