Jing Zhao commented on HDFS-8580:
---------------------------------
actually StripedBlockProto is only used in fsimage before and what I meant is
that we might want to include the cellSize in LocatedBlockProto. For fsimage
part, since HDFS-8585 just removes StripedBlockProto, I guess what we can do
here is to either 1) add the cellSize information into {{StripedBlocksFeature}}
in fsimage.proto, or 2) bring StripedBlockProto back and put block info and
cell size there.

> Zhe Zhang, Kai Zheng and I had a offline discussion. Here is what we thought:
> Add a cellSize field in BlockInfoStriped as a workaround, and deal with
> memory usage in follow-on.(HDFS-8059)

> I think BlockInfoStriped needs to keep cellSize.

> I too was thinking the same when the FSImageLoader problem has came up. This
> will increase the memory usage by ~4bytes for each block though.

> Also, we should consider adding a chunk size field to StripedBlockProto and
> removing the cell size field from HdfsFileStatus. In this way we can access
> the chunk size information in the storage layer.
