Summary: Allow Balancer to run faster Key: HDFS-8818 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-8818 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Improvement Components: balancer & mover Reporter: Tsz Wo Nicholas Sze Assignee: Tsz Wo Nicholas Sze The original design of Balancer is intentionally to make it run slowly so that the balancing activities won't affect the normal cluster activities and the running jobs. There are new use case that cluster admin may choose to balance the cluster when the cluster load is low, or in a maintain window. So that we should have an option to allow Balancer to run faster. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
