> I've managed to recreate HDFS-540 and HDFS-2434 by the simple technique of
> running the HDFS tests on a desktop with out enough memory for all the
> programs trying to run. Things got swapped out and the tests failed as the DN
> heartbeats didn't come in on time.
> the tests both rely on {{waitForDeletion()}} to block the tests until the
> delete operation has completed, but all it does is sleep for the same number
> of seconds as there are datanodes. This is too brittle -it may work on a
> lightly-loaded system, but not on a system under heavy load where it is
> taking longer to replicate than expect.
> Immediate fix: double, triple, the sleep time?
> Better fix: have the thread block until all the DN heartbeats have finished.
