Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-928:
-------------------------------------
The sum buffer should probably be no smaller than the default and also should
be flushed no more frequently than the main buffer. So that would indicate
that it be sized to the larger of io.file.buffer.size and
bufferSize/bytesPerSum. Does that sound right to you?
> make checksums optional per FileSystem

> Project: Hadoop

> Checksumming is currently built into the base FileSystem class. It should
> instead be optional, with each FileSystem implementation electing whether to
> use the Hadoop-provided checksum system, or to disable it, or to implement
> its own custom checksum system.
> To implement this, a ChecksumFileSystem implementation can be provided that
> wraps another FileSystem implementation, implementing checksums as in
> Hadoop's current mandatory implementation (i.e., as a separate crc file per
> file that's elided from directory listings). The 'raw' FileSystem methods
> would be removed. FSDataInputStream and FSDataOutputStream would be made
> interfaces.
