----------------------------------
Thanks for putting up a patch, Colin. I'll try to play with this today and see
how it works out.

bq. does it really degrade the performance of DFSInputStream a lot?
It doesn't degrade the performance at all if tracing is turned off.

But it does quite terribly if tracing is enabled :)

> HDFS generates too many trace spans on read right now. Every call to read()
> we make generates its own span, which is not very practical for things like
> HBase or Accumulo that do many such reads as part of a single operation.
> Instead of tracing every call to read(), we should only trace the cases where
> we refill the buffer inside a BlockReader.
