dhruba borthakur commented on HADOOP-1841:
------------------------------------------

Mukubd: Thanks for running the performance numbers.

Doug: This patch (by itself) will not improve performance. It is mostly a bug 
fix. Koji's earlier comment describes how slow clients caused a 
denial-of-service of the namenode on a real cluster. Mukund's performance runs 
show that performance is not impacted. However, I plan on attempting a 
follow-on patch to NameNode that will move the sync-to-edits-log from occuring 
in the RPC Handler thread, thus possibly improving scalability. Do you think 
that this patch is good to go?

Owen: would you like to review the code again?

> Hadoop's IPC Server currently writes responses from request handler threads 
> using blocking writes.  Performance and scalability might be improved if 
> responses were written asynchronously.
