Daryn Sharp commented on HDFS-7435:
-----------------------------------
[~liuml07], good catch! Not sure how I accidentally did that and I don't know
why the test still passes. I think your proposed fix is correct. I know
extremely little of the benchmark tool so I'd be unable to add a test (for the
test!) in a timely manner, so if you'd like the credit for the bug then I'm
fine with you doing the jira.

> Block reports are encoded as a PB repeating long. Repeating fields use an
> {{ArrayList}} with default capacity of 10. A block report containing tens or
> hundreds of thousand of longs (3 for each replica) is extremely expensive
> since the {{ArrayList}} must realloc many times. Also, decoding repeating
> fields will box the primitive longs which must then be unboxed.
