-------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-1117
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1117
             Project: Hadoop
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: dfs
    Affects Versions: 0.12.0

When the namenode is restarted, the datanodes register and each block is 
inserted into neededReplication. When the namenode exists, safemode it sees 
starts processing neededReplication. It picks up a block from 
neededReplication, sees that it has already has the required number of 
replicas, and continues to the next block in neededReplication. The blocks 
remain in neededReplication permanentlyhe namenode worker thread to scans this 
huge list of blocks once every 3 seconds. This consumes plenty of CPU on the 
namenode.
