HftpFileSystem should not start a RenewerThread in the static initializer -------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HDFS-1389 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1389 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Tsz Wo (Nicholas), SZE {code} //HftpFileSystem private static RenewerThread renewer = new RenewerThread(); static { renewer.start(); } {code} HftpFileSystem creates and starts a RenewerThread in the static initializer. Starting a thread is expensive and the RenewerThread is not required in some cases. One typical example is calling HftpFileSystem.makeQualified(Path path). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
