----------------------------------
bq. This is by design.
I understand that it has merits over the old way. But you cannot simply ignore
existing use cases.
> Issues with OIV processing PB-based fsimages
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HDFS-6293
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-6293
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.4.0
> Reporter: Kihwal Lee
> Priority: Blocker
> Attachments: Heap Histogram.html
>
>
> There are issues with OIV when processing fsimages in protobuf.
> Due to the internal layout changes introduced by the protobuf-based fsimage,
> OIV consumes excessive amount of memory. We have tested with a fsimage with
> about 140M files/directories. The peak heap usage when processing this image
> in pre-protobuf (i.e. pre-2.4.0) format was about 350MB. After converting
> the image to the protobuf format on 2.4.0, OIV would OOM even with 80GB of
> heap (max new size was 1GB). It should be possible to process any image with
> the default heap size of 1.5GB.
> Another issue is the complete change of format/content in OIV's XML output.
> I also noticed that the secret manager section has no tokens while there were
> unexpired tokens in the original image (pre-2.4.0). I did not check whether
> they were also missing in the new pb fsimage.
