Raghu Angadi commented on HADOOP-5890: -------------------------------------- Looking at trunk, there should not have been any wait since 'active threads is 0', right? > Use exponential backoff on Thread.sleep during DN shutdown > ---------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-5890 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-5890 > Project: Hadoop Core > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: dfs > Reporter: Todd Lipcon > Assignee: Todd Lipcon > Attachments: hadoop-5890.txt > > > Tests waste a lot of time in DataNode.shutdown. Typical logs look like: > {code} > 2009-05-21 17:13:20,177 INFO datanode.DataNode (DataNode.java:shutdown(637)) > - Waiting for threadgroup to exit, active threads is 0 > 2009-05-21 17:13:20,177 INFO datanode.DataBlockScanner > (DataBlockScanner.java:run(620)) - Exiting DataBlockScanner thread. > 2009-05-21 17:13:21,117 INFO datanode.DataNode (DataNode.java:shutdown(637)) > - Waiting for threadgroup to exit, active threads is 0 > {code} > In this example (and very commonly) the DataBlockScanner thread exits within > 5-10ms after the first wait. The DN then sleeps an entire second before > succeeding in shutting down. > Using exponential backoff from a short value like 2ms up to a maximum of > 1000ms would solve this. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
