> Key: HDFS-4183
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-4183
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: name-node
> Affects Versions: 0.23.4, 2.0.2-alpha
> Reporter: Kihwal Lee
> Assignee: Kihwal Lee
> Priority: Critical
>
> When a large number of files are abandoned without closing, a storm of lease
> expiration follows in about an hour (lease hard limit). For the last block of
> each file, block recovery is initiated and when the datanode is done, it
> calls commitBlockSynchronization() is called against namenode. A burst of
> these calls can slow down namenode considerably. We need to throttle block
> recovery and/or speed up the rate at which commitBlockSynchronization() is
> served.
