Hi Robert
When HDFS is doing the local short circuit read, it will use
BlockReaderLocal class for reading. There should be some logs at the DFS
client side (RS) which tells abt creating new BlockReaderLocal . If you can
see this then sure the local read is happening.
Also check DN log. If local read happening, then you will not see read
request related logs for the HFile at the DN side.
You check your no# of HFiles and names for checking the logs
Are you sure that when you tested, u have data locality? Region movements
across RSs can break the full data locality.

Not trying to hijack your thread here...
But can you verify via logs that the shortcircuit is working? Because I
enabled shortcircuit but I sure didn't see any performance increase.
I haven't tried enabling hbase checksum yet but I'd like to be able to
verify that works too.
