Hi Eli,
You're right that the problem is resolved in 0.20 with function
newInstance(), unfortunately my system's running on Hadoop 0.18.3 and
i'm still looking for a way to patch this version without affecting the
current system.
Regards,
Huy Phan

Hey Huy,
What version of hadoop are you using? I think HADOOP-4655 may have
resolved the issue you're seeing but I think is only in 20 and later.
Thanks,
Eli

Hi All,
I'm writing a multi-thread application using libhdfs in C, a known issue
of HDFS is that the FileSystem API caches FileSystem handles and always
returned the same FileSystem handle when called from different threads. It
means even though I called hdfsConnect for many times, I should not call
hdfsDisconnect in any single thread.
This may lead to memory leak on system, do you know any workaround for this
issue ?
