I might be wrong: I think the original design of TestDFSIO is to measure DFS IO 
but not MR scheduler or other MR component.  Would you consider to have a 
separated TestMRIO benchmark for MR?

> Currently the read test in TestDFSIO benchmark just opens a large side file 
> and measures the read performance. The MR scheduler has no opportunity to do 
> *any* optimization for the TestDFSIO MR application. The side-effect of this 
> is that it is *very* hard to do any meaningful analysis of the results of the 
> benchmark i.e. to check if node-local or rack-local or off-switch read 
> performance improved/degraded.
