Ohad Raviv commented on HADOOP-14600:
-------------------------------------

I'm not sure I was clear enough in the above comment.
I totaly agree with your current patch, but I'm saying that the initiator of 
all this mess from SPARK-21137 is org.apache.hadoop.mapred.FileInputFormat with 
the following code:
{code}
for (FileStatus globStat: matches) {
  if (globStat.isDirectory()) {
    RemoteIterator<LocatedFileStatus> iter =
        fs.listLocatedStatus(globStat.getPath());
    while (iter.hasNext()) {
      LocatedFileStatus stat = iter.next();
      if (inputFilter.accept(stat.getPath())) {
        if (recursive && stat.isDirectory()) {
          addInputPathRecursively(result, fs, stat.getPath(),
              inputFilter);
        } else {
          result.add(stat);
        }
      }
    }
  } else {
    result.add(globStat);
  }
}
{code}
All I'm suggesting is to replace `listLocatedStatus` call with 
`listStatusIterator` because it returns FileStatus rather than 
LocatedFileStatus and that doesn't trigger all the getPermission() mess at all.
testing that localy (on Mac) caused the test to run in less than a second 
instead of about 30 seconds for about 10000 files.

>
> Reported in SPARK-21137. a {{FileSystem.listStatus}} call really craws 
> against the local FS, because {{FileStatus.getPemissions}} call forces  
> {{DeprecatedRawLocalFileStatus}} tp spawn a process to read the real UGI 
> values.
> That is: for every other FS, what's a field lookup or even a no-op, on the 
> local FS it's a process exec/spawn, with all the costs. This gets expensive 
> if you have many files.
