Todd Lipcon created HDFS-3767: --------------------------------- Summary: Finer grained locking in DN Key: HDFS-3767 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-3767 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Improvement Components: performance Affects Versions: 3.0.0 Reporter: Todd Lipcon
In testing a high-write-throughput workload, I see the DN maintain good performance most of the time, except that occasionally one thread will block for a few seconds in {{finalizeReplica}}. It does so holding the FSDatasetImpl lock, which causes all other writer threads to block behind it. HDFS-1148 (making it a rw lock) would help here, but a bigger help would be to go do finer-grained locking (eg per block or per-subdir). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
