Raghu Angadi commented on HADOOP-2330:
--------------------------------------
The committed patch seems to have multiple debug logging left it. I think these
should be fixed (search for XXX or System in the patch).

> In the current implementation, the transaction log is opened in "append" mode
> and every new transaction is written to the end of the log. This means that
> new blocks get allocated to the edits file frequently.
> It is worth measuring the performance improvement when big chunks of the
> transaction log are allocated up front. Adding new transactions do not cause
> frequent block allocations for the edits log.
