Arpit Agarwal created HDFS-6918: ----------------------------------- Summary: Investigate eviction from RAM disk via file truncation Key: HDFS-6918 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-6918 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Sub-task Reporter: Arpit Agarwal Assignee: Arpit Agarwal
We proposed evicting blocks from RAM disk by just deleting the file. Assuming the client completes its read quickly the block will be deleted when the client closes its handle. [~cmccabe] suggested making eviction more reliable by truncating the file length to 0. This task is to investigate the same. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
