Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE commented on HADOOP-6467:
------------------------------------------------

- Should we have a try-finally on aIn/aLin to close the file?  Otherwise, the 
file will remain open in case of an IOException.

- The codes below are expensive since only parsed[0] is needed.  We could avoid 
regular expression by lineFeed.indexOf(" ") in finding parsed[0].
{code}
+        String[] parsed = lineFeed.split(" ");
+        Path thisPath = new Path(parsed[0]);
+        if ((parsed[0].startsWith(parentString)) && (thisPath.depth() == 
harPath.depth() + 1)) {
{code}

- BTW, what if there is a " " in a path?  Would har work??  If not, we should 
fix it or document it.

> A liststatus call on a directory in hadoop archives leads to ( 2* number of 
> files in directory) open calls to the namenode. This is very sub optimal and 
> needs to be fixed to make it performant enough to be used on a daily basis.
