-----------------------------------

             Summary: LocalDirAllocator should avoid holding locks while 
accessing the filesystem
                 Key: HADOOP-10048
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-10048
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 2.3.0
            Reporter: Jason Lowe


As noted in MAPREDUCE-5584 and HADOOP-7016, LocalDirAllocator can be a 
bottleneck for multithreaded setups like the ShuffleHandler.  We should 
consider moving to a lockless design or minimizing the critical sections to a 
very small amount of time that does not involve I/O operations.
