>
> Why does FSDataOutputStream.close() call flush()? This stream itself does not
> store any data that it needs to flush. It is a wrapper and it should just
> invoke its outputstream's close().
> For. e.g one bad side effect is that, in the case of DFSOutputStream which
> extends FSOutputSummer, flush() inside close sends the current data even
> though FSOutputSummer might have some data.. this left over data will be sent
> in side close() (so it sends data in two different packets instead of one).
> Other filesystems might have similar side effects.
> I will submit a patch.
