> FSDirectory#getListring(String src) has the following code:
>       int i = 0;
>       for (INode cur : contents) {
>         listing[i] = createFileStatus(srcs+cur.getLocalName(), cur);
>         i++;
>       }
> So listing a directory will return an array of FileStatus. Each FileStatus 
> element has the full path name. This increases the return message size and 
> adds non-negligible CPU time to the operation.
> FSDirectory#getFileInfo(String) does not need to return the file name either.
> Another optimization is that in the version of FileStatus that's used in the 
> wire protocol, the field path does not need to be Path; It could be a String 
> or a byte array ideally. This could avoid unnecessary creation of the Path 
> objects at NameNode, thus help reduce the GC problem observed when a large 
> number of getFileInfo or getListing operations hit NameNode.
