stack commented on HDFS-5776:
-----------------------------
bq. An alternative way to do this is to have an "Allow-Hedged-Reads"
configuration, and if it is set to true, we load the number of thread pool and
the threshold time. We will provide an isHedgedReadsEnabled method but we will
not provide enable/disable methods.
The reviews are great. On the above, while I can see putting the on/off
switch as a DN config., we should allow setting at least the config on when to
start the hedge read per DFSCient instance.
bq. This means that we do need to put this in a static, for now, or else
FileContext users will be constantly destroying and creating thread-pools.
Thanks Colin. Makes sense.

> 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.
