Doug Cutting commented on HDFS-611:
-----------------------------------
Why not instead have a queue of blocks to delete and a single thread that
deletes them?
> Heartbeats times from Datanodes increase when there are plenty of blocks to
> delete

> Key: HDFS-611
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-611
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: data-node
> Reporter: dhruba borthakur

> I am seeing that when we delete a large directory that has plenty of blocks,
> the heartbeat times from datanodes increase significantly from the normal
> value of 3 seconds to as large as 50 seconds or so. The heartbeat thread in
> the Datanode deletes a bunch of blocks sequentially, this causes the
> heartbeat times to increase.
