                 Key: HADOOP-677
                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-677
             Project: Hadoop
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: ipc
    Affects Versions: 0.7.2
            Reporter: Owen O'Malley
         Assigned To: Owen O'Malley
             Fix For: 0.9.0


There have been problems with http clients connecting to the RPC servers, which 
causes the RPC to try and allocate huge buffers and get OutOfMemoryExceptions. 
I want to have a fixed prefix that is sent first that identifies it as an RPC 
client. To make the system compatible as much as possible, I'd make the servers 
accept both forms for a Hadoop release and then change the clients to send the 
prefix, and finally make the servers only accept the new form.
