Ming Ma commented on HDFS-8009:
-------------------------------

This overall DN congestion functionality seem useful.

* System load is a useful metrics. But I wonder if we plan to take fairness 
into account. e.g., DN will ask only the heavy users to back off.
* Support for read operation. Sometimes DNs could become the hotspot due to 
some applications reading specific blocks and cause high NIC bandwidth 
utilization.

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