Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-12603:
-----------------------------------------
do we need to care about atime at all, given we explicitly recommend turning
atime off on filesystems used for mounting HDFS. Or is it that hdfs itself does
atimes, and we want filesystems to be roughly consistent?
In which case: does anyone have any data on how often atimes are checked in
real applications?
> TestSymlinkLocalFSFileContext#testSetTimesSymlinkToDir occasionally fail
