Harsh J commented on MAPREDUCE-4630:
------------------------------------

I agree with Alex.

I haven't seen much use-case for this (of overriding dfs.blocksize many times 
in general), and besides, the config param is pretty well known so can be set 
via -D opts or via Configuration.set(…)?

Are these options not sufficient Radim?
