Nick Dimiduk commented on HDFS-8213:
------------------------------------
bq. Another very important use case of tracing is "I have proprietary app X
that talks to HDFS, and it's slow. How come?"
Bingo! That's the perspective I was missing. I hadn't considered a proprietary
app market around these tools; being a consumer of some app running on my
cluster and wanting visibility into it w/o the app supporting tracing
explicitly. Thanks [~cmccabe]! Please socialize this idea more widely ;)
> DFSClient should use hdfs.client.htrace HTrace configuration prefix rather

> DFSClient initializing SpanReceivers is a problem for Accumulo, which manages
> SpanReceivers through its own configuration. This results in the same
> receivers being registered multiple times and spans being delivered more than
> once. The documentation says SpanReceiverHost.getInstance should be issued
> once per process, so there is no expectation that DFSClient should do this.
