Allen Wittenauer resolved HDFS-2142. ------------------------------------ Resolution: Cannot Reproduce Stale. > Namenode in trunk has much slower performance than Namenode in MR-279 branch > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-2142 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-2142 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Bug > Components: namenode > Affects Versions: 0.23.0 > Reporter: Eric Payne > > I am measureing the performance of the namenode by running the > org.apache.hadoop.fs.loadGenerator.LoadGenerator application. This > application shows there is a very large slowdown in the processing of opens, > writes, closes, and operations per second in the trunk when compared to the > MR-279 branch > There have been some race conditions and locking issues fixed in trunk, which > is a very good thing because these race conditions were causing the namenode > to crash under load conditions (see HDFS:1257). However, the slowdown to the > namenode is considerable. > I am still trying to verify which changes caused the slowdown. It was > originally suggested that the HDFS:988 may have caused the slowdown, but I > don't think it was the culprit. I have checked out and built from SVN 3 > revisions previous to HDFS988 and they all have about the same performance. > Here is my environment: > Host0: namenode daemon > Host1-9: simulate many datanodes using org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.DataNodeCluster > > LoadGenerator output on MR-279 branch: > Average open execution time: 1.8496516782773909ms > Average deletion execution time: 2.956340167046317ms > Average create execution time: 3.725259427992913ms > Average write_close execution time: 11.151860288534548ms > Average operations per second: 1053.3666666666666ops/s > LoadGenerator output on trunk: > Average open execution time: 28.603515625ms > Average deletion execution time: 32.20792079207921ms > Average create execution time: 32.37326732673267ms > Average write_close execution time: 82.84752475247525ms > Average operations per second: 135.13333333333333ops/s -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
