Jay Booth updated HDFS-1323:
----------------------------
Attachment: hdfs-1323-20100730.patch
> Pool/share file channels for HDFS read
> --------------------------------------
>
> Key: HDFS-1323
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1323
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: data-node
> Reporter: Jay Booth
> Fix For: 0.20-append, 0.22.0
>
> Attachments: hdfs-1323-20100730.patch
>
>
> Currently, all reads in HDFS require opening and closing the underlying
> block/meta filechannels. We could pool these filechannels and save some
> system calls and other work. Since HDFS read requests can be satisfied by
> positioned reads and transferTos, we can even share these filechannels
> between concurrently executing requests.
> The attached patch was benchmarked as part of work on HDFS-918 and exhibited
> a 10% performance increase for small random reads.
> This does not affect client logic and involves minimal change to server
> logic. Patch is based on branch 20-append.
