Todd Lipcon resolved HDFS-3023. ------------------------------- Resolution: Fixed Fix Version/s: HA branch (HDFS-1623) Target Version/s: HA branch (HDFS-1623), 0.24.0 (was: 0.24.0, HA branch (HDFS-1623)) Hadoop Flags: Reviewed Committed to HA branch. > Optimize entries in edits log for persistBlocks calls > ----------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-3023 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-3023 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: name-node, performance > Affects Versions: HA branch (HDFS-1623), 0.23.2 > Reporter: Todd Lipcon > Assignee: Todd Lipcon > Fix For: HA branch (HDFS-1623) > > Attachments: hdfs-3023-HDFS-1623.txt, hdfs-3023.txt > > > One of the performance issues noticed in the HA branch is due to the much > larger edit logs, now that we are writing OP_ADD transactions to the edit log > on every block allocation. We can condense these calls down in two ways: > 1) use variable-length integers for the block list length, size, and genstamp > (most of these end up fitting in far less than 8 bytes) > 2) use delta-coding for the genstamp and block size for any blocks after the > first block (most blocks will be the same size and only slightly higher > genstamps) > 3) introduce a new OP_UPDATE_BLOCKS transaction that doesn't re-serialize > metadata information like lease owner, permissions, etc > 4) allow OP_UPDATE_BLOCKS to only re-serialize the blocks that have changed > for a given transaction -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
