Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE commented on HADOOP-6145:
------------------------------------------------

srcFs.exists(src) and srcFs.isDirectory(src) both call 
srcFs.getFileStatus(src).  We could call srcFs.getFileStatus(src) once in 
FsShell.delete(..) and save a rpc.

> No error message for deleting non-existant file or directory.
