caofangkun commented on MAPREDUCE-2494: --------------------------------------- Hi Robert Joseph Evans : LinkedHashMap has two ordering mode : insertion-order and access-order. In this issue why don't U use access-order(It is more like LRU )? That is : private static LinkedHashMap<String, CacheStatus> cachedArchives = new LinkedHashMap<String, CacheStatus>(16, 0.75f, true); > Make the distributed cache delete entires using LRU priority > ------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: MAPREDUCE-2494 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-2494 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: distributed-cache > Affects Versions: 0.20.205.0, 0.21.0 > Reporter: Robert Joseph Evans > Assignee: Robert Joseph Evans > Fix For: 0.20.205.0, 0.23.0 > > Attachments: MAPREDUCE-2494-20.20X-V1.patch, > MAPREDUCE-2494-20.20X-V3.patch, MAPREDUCE-2494-V1.patch, > MAPREDUCE-2494-V2.patch > > > Currently the distributed cache will wait until a cache directory is above a > preconfigured threshold. At which point it will delete all entries that are > not currently being used. It seems like we would get far fewer cache misses > if we kept some of them around, even when they are not being used. We should > add in a configurable percentage for a goal of how much of the cache should > remain clear when not in use, and select objects to delete based off of how > recently they were used, and possibly also how large they are/how difficult > is it to download them again. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
