Arpit Agarwal commented on HDFS-11535:
--------------------------------------
The tests look good, thanks for adding them [~vagarychen].
Minor comments:
# testPercentageStorageType and testPercentageStorageTypeWithMixedTopology seem
to be testing 90% archival and 10% disk. Did you mean to test the opposite?
# You can move the @Ignore annotation to the class instead of each test case
method.
# The following code can be replaced with {{assertNotNull(node)}}, in multiple
places.
{code}
if (node == null) {
LOG.error("node not found, should not happen!");
throw new IllegalArgumentException();
}
{code}
# Few code style fixes e.g. spaces around operators in {{i<OP_NUM}},
{{NODE_NUM*chance}} etc.

> This JIRA is created to post the results of some performance experiments we
> did. For those who are interested, please the attached .pdf file for more
> detail. The attached patch file includes the experiment code we ran.
> The key insights we got from these tests is that: although *the new method
> outperforms the current one in most cases*. There is still *one case where
> the current one is better*. Which is when there is only one storage type in
> the cluster, and we also always look for this storage type. In this case, it
> is simply a waste of time to perform storage-type-based pruning, blindly
> picking up a random node (current methods) would suffice.
> Therefore, based on the analysis, we propose to use a *combination of both
> the old and the new methods*:
> say, we search for a node of type X, since now inner node all keep storage
> type info, we can *just check root node to see if X is the only type it has*.
> If yes, blindly picking a random leaf will work, so we simply call the old
> method, otherwise we call the new method.
> There is still at least one missing piece in this performance test, which is
> garbage collection. The new method does a few more object creation when doing
> the search, which adds overhead to GC. I'm still thinking of any potential
> optimization but this seems tricky, also I'm not sure whether this
> optimization worth doing at all. Please feel free to leave any
> comments/suggestions.
> Thanks [~arpitagarwal] and [~szetszwo] for the offline discussion.
