Sean Busbey updated ACCUMULO-884:
---------------------------------

    Priority: Major  (was: Minor)

The deliverables to close would be:

* Performance #s for some workload(s) as justification
* User manual addendum on configuration changes needed in HDFS and/or Accumulo 
(ala [HBase's 
section|http://hbase.apache.org/0.94/book.html#perf.hdfs.configs.localread])

Optional:
* logs or Monitor changes to show short circuit presence in running instance

I'm putting the priority back at Major because the performance impact on HBase 
was significant.

> Take advantage of short circuit read for local files

> This is a new feature in hadoop 1.0.x and some versions of 0.22 and 0.23.  It 
> allows a client to read directly from disk instead of through a DataNode when 
> the data is stored locally.  Enabling it involves setting two configuration 
> parameters, the first in hdfs-site.xml and the second in accumulo-site.xml.  
> We should make sure this works with Accumulo and recommend it in the 
> documentation.
> - dfs.block.local-path-access.user is the key in datanode configuration to 
> specify the user allowed to do short circuit read.
> - dfs.client.read.shortcircuit is the key to enable short circuit read at the 
> client side configuration.
> See HDFS-2246 and http://hbase.apache.org/book/perf.hdfs.configs.html for 
> more information.
