Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-15489:
-----------------------------------------
OK, I see, if !auth no update. Explains why I didn't see it. I think I'd like
this even in non-auth, probably, so that if you do a getFileStatus() after it
can bypass the FS.
But: i see the risks here if something else does an update
> S3Guard to self update on directory listings of S3

> Key: HADOOP-15489
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-15489
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: fs/s3
> Affects Versions: 3.1.0
> Environment: s3guard
> Reporter: Steve Loughran
> Priority: Major
>
> S3Guard updates its table on a getFileStatus call, but not on a directory
> listing.
> While this makes directory listings faster (no need to push out an update),
> it slows down subsequent queries of the files, such as a sequence of:
> {code}
> statuses = s3a.listFiles(dir)
> for (status: statuses) {
> if (status.isFile) {
> try(is = s3a.open(status.getPath())) {
> ... do something
> }
> }
> {code}
> this is because the open() is doing the getFileStatus check, even after the
> listing.
> Updating the DDB tables after a listing would give those reads a speedup,
> albeit at the expense of initiating a (bulk) update in the list call. Of
> course, we could consider making that async, though that design (essentially
> a write-buffer) would require the buffer to be checked in the reads too.
