Namenode heap optimization - reuse objects for commonly used file names
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HDFS-1110
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1110
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Suresh Srinivas
            Assignee: Suresh Srinivas
             Fix For: 0.22.0


There are a lot of common file names used in HDFS, mainly created by mapreduce, 
such as file names starting with "part". Reusing byte[] corresponding to these 
recurring file names will save significant heap space used for storing the file 
names in millions of INodeFile objects.
