Todd Lipcon updated HDFS-3697:
------------------------------

    Attachment: hdfs-3697.txt

Attached patch enables the readahead to 4MB by default. Experimentally we've 
determined this provides a good performance boost without too high an increase 
in buffer cache usage.

I also took the liberty of adding documentation for the other fadvise 
parameters to hdfs-default.xml in this patch.

> The fadvise features have been implemented for some time, and we've enabled 
> them in production at a lot of customer sites without difficulty. I'd like to 
> enable them by default in future versions so that users get this benefit 
> without any manual configuration required.
