Konstantin Shvachko commented on HADOOP-3272:
---------------------------------------------

The patch is fairly simple, but might have consequences.
I am all for committing it but before we do lets run some benchmarks.
I propose to run TestDFSIO on at least a 100 nodes cluster creating say 400 
files with 100 small blocks each simultaneously with the patch an without.
It would be very useful to post jmap -histo outputs for Block and BlockInfo 
objects before and after the patch is applied.

> Reduce redundant copy of Block object in BlocksMap.map hash map

> Looks like we might have redundant copy of Block object as Key for 
> BlocksMap.map hash map. We should restore this to using same object for both 
> Key, Value to save space.
