Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE updated HADOOP-9252:
-------------------------------------------

     Description: 
humanReadableInt(..) incorrectly uses oneDecimal without synchronization.

Also, limitDecimalTo2(double) correctly uses decimalFormat with 
synchronization.  However, synchronization can be avoided for a better 
performance.

  was:limitDecimalTo2(double) currently uses decimalFormat, which is a static 
field, so that it is synchronized.  Synchronization is unnecessary since it can 
simply uses String.format(..).

      Issue Type: Bug  (was: Improvement)
         Summary: StringUtils.humanReadableInt(..) has a race condition  (was: 
StringUtils.limitDecimalTo2(..) is unnecessarily synchronized)
    Hadoop Flags: Reviewed

Chris, thanks a lot for the careful review!

(Changed the issue type to Bug, and revised the summary and the description.)
