Colin Patrick McCabe commented on HDFS-9051:
--------------------------------------------
I think it's problematic to move more processing to the NameNode, given that it
is a bottleneck for scalability currently. I don't see why this can't be
implemented more effectively on the client.
> webhdfs should support recursive list
