------------------------------------------
+1. Code looks good.

> 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.
