Ted Malaska created HDFS-6383: --------------------------------- Summary: Upgrade S3n s3.fs.buffer.dir to suppoer multi directories Key: HDFS-6383 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-6383 Project: Hadoop HDFS Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Ted Malaska Priority: Minor
s3.fs.buffer.dir defines the tmp folder where files will be written to before getting sent to S3. Right now this is limited to a single folder which causes to major issues. 1. You need a drive with enough space to store all the tmp files at once 2. You are limited to the IO speeds of a single drive This solution will resolve both and has been tested to increase the S3 write speed by 2.5x with 10 mappers on hs1. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
