It does not provide no optics on how effective it is but read latencies should show a marked improvement, especially if good data locality, lots of random reads, and dataset is larger than available cache. +Other advanced configurations that you might play with, especially if shortcircuit functionality +is complaining in the logs, include `dfs.client.read.shortcircuit.streams.cache.size` and +`dfs.client.socketcache.capacity`.
