Reduce NN startup time by reducing the processing time of block reports
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HDFS-1147
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1147
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: name-node
            Reporter: dhruba borthakur


The NameNode restart times are impacted to a large extent by the processing 
time of block reports. For a cluster with 150 millions blocks, the block report 
processing in the NN can take upto 20 minutes or so. The NN is open for 
business only after it has processed the block reports from most of the 
datanodes. If we can reduce the processing time of a block report, that will 
directly reduce the restart time of the NN.
