Haohui Mai commented on HDFS-8009:
----------------------------------

The v0 patch allows the datanode to signal congestion when the load of the 
system is over 1.5 times of the number of available cores, which means that 
there are at least 50% more processes are waiting to be scheduled in the OS. We 
found it an effective metric to signal that the DNs are undergoing massive 
amount of writes.

> The DataNode should signal congestion (i.e. "I'm too busy") in the 
> PipelineAck using the mechanism introduced in HDFS-7270.
