Hairong Kuang updated HADOOP-470:
---------------------------------
Attachment: blockUI.patch
> Some improvements in the DFS content browsing UI
> ------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HADOOP-470
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-470
> Project: Hadoop
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: dfs
> Reporter: Devaraj Das
> Assigned To: Hairong Kuang
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: blockUI.patch
>
>
> Some improvement requests from Yoram:
> 1. directory browsing: the size, replication and block size fields are
> unused, and indeed the replication field contains random junk. It would be
> useful to use these fields to represent the size of the folder (recursive,
> like du -s), and possibly the number of files in the folder.
> 2. since file sizes are typically very large, introducing a comma thousands
> separator will make them more readable.
> 3. For a particular file I have the list of blocks that make it up. It would
> be useful to see the block placement information - which datanodes are
> holding that block. That's arguably more relevant than the block contents
> when clicking on the block.
> 4. a nit - 2048 may be too small a chunk size by default. The overhead of
> getting the first byte is so high (redirect, connect, handshake etc.) that
> you may as well get 10-20k as your first shot.
