Balancer should run for a configurable # of iterations
------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-4678
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4678
             Project: Hadoop Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: dfs
    Affects Versions: 0.18.2
            Reporter: Brian Bockelman
            Priority: Minor


The balancer currently exits if nothing has changed after 5 iterations.

Our site would like to constantly balance a stream of incoming data; we would 
like to be able to set the number of iterations it "does nothing" for before 
exiting; even better would be if we set it to a negative number and could 
continuously run this as a daemon.
