Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-4998:
--------------------------------------

So, since performance is the reason, do we have a benchmark that shows this as 
significant?  If not, we'll need one, right?

> It would be useful to implement a JNI-based runtime for Hadoop to get access 
> to the native OS runtime. This would allow us to stop relying on exec'ing 
> bash to get access to information such as user-groups, process limits etc. 
> and for features such as chown/chgrp (org.apache.hadoop.util.Shell).
