Yong Zhang commented on HDFS-9366:
----------------------------------
Thanks for you comment [~raviprak]! but I have no idea for global sorting for
different columns, I think this case should still use existing listStatus to
fetch all to client side to do the sort, otherwise NN memory will be a problem.
> Webhdfs support set result size and cursor value in op=LISTSTATUS

> webhdfs will return large result if HDFS directory with large number of
> children. Some webui will not work or very slow in this scnario such as HUE.
> webhdfs could support LISTSTATUS operation to get all children via more than
> 1 request, each request only return a small size.
