[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-66?page=all ] Doug Cutting resolved HADOOP-66: --------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed Assign To: Doug Cutting I just committed a fix for this and some problems that it was hiding. > dfs client writes all data for a chunk to /tmp > ---------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-66 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-66 > Project: Hadoop > Type: Bug > Components: dfs > Versions: 0.1 > Reporter: Sameer Paranjpye > Assignee: Doug Cutting > Fix For: 0.1 > Attachments: no-tmp.patch > > The dfs client writes all the data for the current chunk to a file in /tmp, > when the chunk is complete it is shipped out to the Datanodes. This can cause > /tmp to fill up fast when a lot of files are being written. A potentially > better scheme is to buffer the written data in RAM (application code can set > the buffer size) and flush it to the Datanodes when the buffer fills up. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
