Fenghua Hu commented on HDFS-10690:
-----------------------------------
Xiaoyu, thanks for the reply. Regarding the bulletin 2, look like i didn't
explain the design very well. Sorry for the misleading. I'd like to clarify
here. This design won't need lookup in link list, because there are two
references in ShortCircuitReplica object. If we want to remove a
ShortCircuitReplica object from the list, just directly access its references
and unlink itself. That's why it can improve performance.

> Key: HDFS-10690
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-10690
> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: hdfs-client
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0-alpha2
> Reporter: Fenghua Hu
> Assignee: Fenghua Hu
> Attachments: HDFS-10690.001.patch, HDFS-10690.002.patch

> Original Estimate: 336h
> Remaining Estimate: 336h
>
> Currently in ShortCircuitCache, two TreeMap objects are used to track the
> cached replicas.
> private final TreeMap<Long, ShortCircuitReplica> evictable = new TreeMap<>();
> private final TreeMap<Long, ShortCircuitReplica> evictableMmapped = new
> TreeMap<>();
> TreeMap employs Red-Black tree for sorting. This isn't an issue when using
> traditional HDD. But when using high-performance SSD/PCIe Flash, the cost
> inserting/removing an entry becomes considerable.
> To mitigate it, we designed a new list-based for replica tracking.
> The list is a double-linked FIFO. FIFO is time-based, thus insertion is a
> very low cost operation. On the other hand, list is not lookup-friendly. To
> address this issue, we introduce two references into ShortCircuitReplica
> object.
> ShortCircuitReplica next = null;
> ShortCircuitReplica prev = null;
> In this way, lookup is not needed when removing a replica from the list. We
> only need to modify its predecessor's and successor's references in the lists.
> Our tests showed up to 15-50% performance improvement when using PCIe flash
> as storage media.
> The original patch is against 2.6.4, now I am porting to Hadoop trunk, and
> patch will be posted soon.
