> WASB Performance Improvements
> Problem
> -----------
> Azure Native File system operations like rename/delete which has large number
> of directories and/or files in the source directory are experiencing
> performance issues. Here are possible reasons
> a) We first list all files under source directory hierarchically. This is
> a serial operation.
> b) After collecting the entire list of files under a folder, we delete or
> rename files one by one serially.
> c) There is no logging information available for these costly operations
> even in DEBUG mode leading to difficulty in understanding wasb performance
> issues.
> Proposal
> -------------
> Step 1: Rename and delete operations will generate a list all files under the
> source folder. We need to use azure flat listing option to get list with
> single request to azure store. We have introduced config
> fs.azure.flatlist.enable to enable this option. The default value is 'false'
> which means flat listing is disabled.
> Step 2: Create thread pool and threads dynamically based on user
> configuration. These thread pools will be deleted after operation is over.
> We are introducing introducing two new configs
> a) fs.azure.rename.threads : Config to set number of rename
> threads. Default value is 0 which means no threading.
> b) fs.azure.delete.threads: Config to set number of delete
> threads. Default value is 0 which means no threading.
> We have provided debug log information on number of threads not used
> for the operation which can be useful .
> Failure Scenarios:
> If we fail to create thread pool due to ANY reason (for example trying
> create with thread count with large value such as 1000000), we fall back to
> serialization operation.
> Step 3: Bob operations can be done in parallel using multiple threads
> executing following snippet
> while ((currentIndex = fileIndex.getAndIncrement()) < files.length) {
> FileMetadata file = files[currentIndex];
> Rename/delete(file);
> }
> The above strategy depends on the fact that all files are stored in a
> final array and each thread has to determine synchronized next index to do
> the job. The advantage of this strategy is that even if user configures large
> number of unusable threads, we always ensure that work doesn’t get serialized
> due to lagging threads.
> We are logging following information which can be useful for tuning
> number of threads
> a) Number of unusable threads
> b) Time taken by each thread
> c) Number of files processed by each thread
> d) Total time taken for the operation
> Failure Scenarios:
> Failure to queue a thread execute request shouldn’t be an issue if we
> can ensure at least one thread has completed execution successfully. If we
> couldn't schedule one thread then we should take serialization path.
> Exceptions raised while executing threads are still considered regular
> exceptions and returned to client as operation failed. Exceptions raised
> while stopping threads and deleting thread pool shouldn't can be ignored if
> operation all files are done with out any issue.
