Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-13293:
-----------------------------------------

Looking @ the logs this would significantly speed up some operations, as well 
as fix reported problems with some third party S3 implementations which can't 
handle a content length of 0-0

> add a special 0 byte input stream for empty blobs

> S3a (and the other object stores) have a lot of IO going on, even for 0 byte 
> files. They don't need to: that's a special case which can be handled 
> locally. A special ZeroByteInputStream class could handle this for all the 
> object stores.
> This isn't much of an optimization: code shouldn't normally need to go 
> through 0 byte files, but we see evidence it does sometimes happen.
