Hairong Kuang updated HADOOP-3943:
----------------------------------

    Attachment: sortDistance.patch

It seems to me that simply removing "synchronized" should work. There is no 
need to grab the read lock.

> NetworkTopology.pseudoSortByDistance does not need to be a synchronized method
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

> When all requests to namenode are read, most handlers block on 
> NetworkTopology object lock when sorting replicas. Removing this necessary 
> lock would reduce the contention in namenode and therefore improve its 
> throughput.
