Hi Eli,

There is no new functionality added by HDFS-2246. It is a "performance"
fix.

But I agree that it is not a trivial fix. One proposal coud be to commit
this patch to trunk too and then continue to work on HDFS-347 to make a
better fix to this problem. The godo part is that there is no API change
if/when we move to HDFS-347.
