Andrew Wang commented on HADOOP-12055:
--------------------------------------
I'd like to commit this if there are no further comments. Please note that
HADOOP-11483 already switched us over to the JDK7 hardlink for all the other
usages and was released in 2.7.0. I also ran some performance tests myself and
didn't see a difference between using our JNI implementation vs the JDK7 API.
> Deprecate usage of NativeIO#link
