Suresh Srinivas created HDFS-4161: ------------------------------------- Summary: HDFS keeps a thread open for every file writer Key: HDFS-4161 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-4161 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Bug Components: hdfs client Affects Versions: 1.0.0 Reporter: Suresh Srinivas
In 1.0 release DFSClient uses a thread per file writer. In some use cases (dynamic partions in hive) that use a large number of file writers a large number of threads are created. The file writer thread has the following stack: {noformat} at java.lang.Thread.sleep(Native Method) at org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.DFSClient$LeaseChecker.run(DFSClient.java:1462) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:662) {noformat} This problem has been fixed in later releases. This jira will post a consolidated patch from various jiras that addresses the issue. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
