Aaron T. Myers commented on HDFS-4698:
--------------------------------------

bq. I think it would not be too difficult to update the stats after every read, 
rather than just after close. That will make it a lot more useful, I think.

I think this is a good idea, if only to make the interface more easily 
understood. Though not a bug per se, it's a little odd to continue to be 
accessing an (Input|Output)Stream after having called close on it.

bq. I think the tl;dr is that we should think about that later.

Makes sense to me. Thanks for thinking about it.

> We should provide metrics to let clients know how many bytes of data they 
> have read remotely, versus locally or via short-circuit local reads.  This 
> will allow clients to know how well they're doing at bringing the computation 
> to the data, which will be useful in evaluating placement policies and 
> cluster configurations.
