Kihwal Lee commented on HADOOP-9956:
------------------------------------
Now that the wait-notify dancing is removed, we can remove {{synchronized}}
from doRunLoop(). Otherwise the patch looks good.

> The socket listener and readers use a complex synchronization to update the
> reader's NIO {{Selector}}. Updating active selectors is not thread-safe so
> precautions are required.
> However, the current locking choreography results in a serialized
> distribution of new connections to the parallel socket readers. A
> slower/busier reader can stall the listener and throttle performance.
> The problem manifests as unexpectedly low cpu utilization by the listener and
> readers (~20-30%) under heavy load. The call queue is shallow when it should
> be overflowing.
