Zhe Zhang commented on HDFS-10616:
----------------------------------
Thanks much for posting the JIRAs / patches Daryn.
Quick question: is 2.9 just a temporary target version? Ideally I'd like to
apply those optimizations to 2.6.

> Key: HDFS-10616
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-10616
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: hdfs
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0-alpha
> Reporter: Daryn Sharp
> Assignee: Daryn Sharp
>
> Path handling in the namesystem and directory is very inefficient. The path
> is repeatedly resolved, decomposed into path components, recombined to a full
> path. parsed again, throughout the system. This is directly inefficient for
> general performance, and indirectly via unnecessary pressure on young gen GC.
> The namesystem should only operate on paths, parse it once into inodes, and
> the directory should only operate on inodes.
