Walter Su commented on HDFS-8287:
---------------------------------

When writes stripe_0: streamer for datablocks #0~#5 start at the same time. 
Assume #3 is the fastest. We let #3 do encode(). But encode() one time is very 
long.
...
When writes stripe_80: streamer #0~#2, #4, #5 is ready. #3 is non-responding 
and becomes the slowest one. The dataQueue of #3 exceeds writeMaxPackets and 
blocks client thread.

I hope HADOOP-11540 can successfully reduces encode() time to an acceptable 
level. By then, I still prefer using an independent thread to do the encode().

> When a stripping cell is full, writeChunk computes and generates parity 
> packets.  It sequentially calls waitAndQueuePacket so that user client cannot 
> continue to write data until it finishes.
> We should allow user client to continue writing instead but not blocking it 
> when writing parity.
