> We recently had an issue where a user set the block size very very low and 
> managed to create a single file with hundreds of thousands of blocks. This 
> caused problems with the edit log since the OP_ADD op was so large 
> (HDFS-4304). I imagine it could also cause efficiency issues in the NN. To 
> prevent users from making such mistakes, we should:
> - introduce a configurable minimum block size, below which requests are 
> rejected
> - introduce a configurable maximum number of blocks per file, above which 
> requests to add another block are rejected (with a suitably high default as 
> to not prevent legitimate large files)
