Suresh Srinivas commented on HDFS-3791:
---------------------------------------

when I added this in trunk, I was not sure if there is a usecase. The whole 
idea was to give up lock once deleting some number of blocks. So the number 
currently is arbitrary.
                
> Backport HDFS-173 to Branch-1 :  Recursively deleting a directory with 
> millions of files makes NameNode unresponsive for other commands until the 
> deletion completes
