Rushabh S Shah commented on HADOOP-15292:
-----------------------------------------
[[email protected]]: This seems like a performance improvement to distcp tool.
Should we backport to branch-2.8 also ?
> Distcp's use of pread is slowing it down.

> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: tools/distcp
> Affects Versions: 2.5.0
> Reporter: Virajith Jalaparti
> Assignee: Virajith Jalaparti

> Fix For: 3.1.0

> Distcp currently uses positioned-reads (in
> RetriableFileCopyCommand#copyBytes) when the source offset is > 0. This
> results in unnecessary overheads (new BlockReader being created on the
> client-side, multiple readBlock() calls to the Datanodes, each of which
> requires the creation of a BlockSender and an inputstream to the ReplicaInfo).
