Jason Lowe commented on HADOOP-12191:
-------------------------------------
Thanks for the comments, Samer! Since this is already resolved and does fix
the stated problem it would be better to file a separate improvement JIRA with
these suggestions rather than try to address them here.

> Bzip2Factory.isNativeBzip2Loaded is not protected from multiple threads
