Does a big delete starve other clients?

                 Key: HADOOP-4032
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4032
             Project: Hadoop Core
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: dfs
    Affects Versions: 0.18.0
            Reporter: Robert Chansler


Or, more generally, is there _any_ operation that has the potential to severely 
starve other clients?

The speculation is that deleting a directory with 50,000 files might starve 
other client for several seconds. Is that true? Is that necessary?
