Colin Patrick McCabe commented on HDFS-5776: -------------------------------------------- By the way, my previous comment was assuming that the alternative proposed to making the thread-pool static was putting it in DFSClient (not a good option). Another option would be making the thread-pool local to the DFSInputStream. However, this seems like it will tend to create an enormous number of threads, especially for applications like HBase that open many files. So again I would argue it should be static. > Support 'hedged' reads in DFSClient > ----------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-5776 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-5776 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: hdfs-client > Affects Versions: 3.0.0 > Reporter: Liang Xie > Assignee: Liang Xie > Attachments: HDFS-5776-v2.txt, HDFS-5776-v3.txt, HDFS-5776-v4.txt, > HDFS-5776-v5.txt, HDFS-5776-v6.txt, HDFS-5776.txt > > > This is a placeholder of hdfs related stuff backport from > https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-7509 > The quorum read ability should be helpful especially to optimize read outliers > we can utilize "dfs.dfsclient.quorum.read.threshold.millis" & > "dfs.dfsclient.quorum.read.threadpool.size" to enable/disable the hedged read > ability from client side(e.g. HBase), and by using DFSQuorumReadMetrics, we > could export the interested metric valus into client system(e.g. HBase's > regionserver metric). > The core logic is in pread code path, we decide to goto the original > fetchBlockByteRange or the new introduced fetchBlockByteRangeSpeculative per > the above config items. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.5#6160)
