My proposed change to the patch is attached as HADOOP-4346-0.18.3.patch, but
I'm not sure if it's correct.
> Hadoop triggers a "soft" fd leak.

> Starting with Hadoop-0.17, most of the network I/O uses non-blocking NIO
> channels. Normal blocking reads and writes are handled by Hadoop and use our
> own cache of selectors. This cache suites well for Hadoop where I/O often
> occurs on many short lived threads. Number of fds consumed is proportional to
> number of threads currently blocked.
> If blocking I/O is done using java.*, Sun's implementation uses internal
> per-thread selectors. These selectors are closed using {{sun.misc.Cleaner}}.
> Looks like this cleaning is kind of like finalizers and tied to GC. This is
> pretty ill suited if we have many threads that are short lived. Until GC
> happens, number of these selectors keeps growing. Each selector consumes 3
> fds.
> Though blocking read and write are handled by Hadoop, {{connect()}} is still
> the default implementation that uses per-thread selector.
> Koji helped a lot in tracking this. Some sections from 'jmap' output and
> other info Koji collected led to this suspicion and will include that in the
> next comment.
> One solution might be to handle connect() also in Hadoop using our selectors.
