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. -dhruba On Thu, Nov 10, 2011 at 4:32 PM, Eli Collins <e...@cloudera.com> wrote: > Hey Matt, > > Is HDFS-2246 slated for 0.20.205.1?
