Zhe Zhang commented on HDFS-9657:
---------------------------------

This is an interesting idea. However, when some internal blocks of a group are 
missing, the entire block group is *at risk*. Should we really wait until a 
certain wall clock time to start reconstruction? Looks like throttling is a 
better idea and I believe we are already throttling the amount of DN work in a 
given time window.

> The EC recover tasks consume a lot of network bandwidth and disk I/O. 
> Recovering a corrupt block requires transferring 6 blocks , hence creating a 
> 6X overhead in network bandwidth and disk I/O.  When a datanode fails , the 
> recovery of the whole blocks on this datanode may use up the network 
> bandwith.  We need to start a recovery task at a proper time in order to give 
> less impact to the system.
