> In HADOOP-3633, namenode was assigning some datanodes to receive hundreds of
> blocks in a short period which caused datanodes to go out of memroy(threads).
> Most of them were from remote rack.
> Looking at the code,
> {noformat}
> 166 chooseLocalRack(results.get(1), excludedNodes, blocksize,
> 167 maxNodesPerRack, results);
> {noformat}
> was sometimes not choosing the local rack of the writer(source).
> As a result, when a datanode goes down, other datanodes on the same rack were
> getting large number of blocks from remote racks.
