Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-13530:
-----------------------------------------

Although we are removing s3, and leaving s3n alone to avoid breaking it, s3a is 
undergoing lots of work. However, this feature isn't needed there; it's config 
option {{fs.s3a.buffer.dir}} already takes a list, using {{LocalDirAllocator}} 
for the same QoS as HDFS itself: round robin allocation, though looking at the 
code there, it's doing it wrong (round-robin isn't being set up right).

For this JIRA, closing as a wontfix. If you are still using ASF s3://, time to 
move to Hadoop 2.7+ and embrace s3a

> Upgrade S3 fs.s3.buffer.dir to support multi directories

>             Project: Hadoop Common
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: fs/s3
>    Affects Versions: 2.4.0

>            Assignee: Ted Malaska
>            Priority: Minor

> fs.s3.buffer.dir defines the tmp folder where files will be written to before 
> getting sent to S3.  Right now this is limited to a single folder which 
> causes to major issues.
> 1. You need a drive with enough space to store all the tmp files at once
> 2. You are limited to the IO speeds of a single drive
> This is similar to HADOOP-10610 but applies to {{s3://}} hadoop block fs.
