Rushabh S Shah commented on HDFS-12811:
---------------------------------------

Our monitoring system or operations team runs periodic fsck command on root 
directory couple of times a day.
This improvement will be helpful in that cases.

> A cheaper, faster, less memory intensive Hadoop fsck

> A cheaper, faster, less memory intensive, approach is eliminate the traversal 
> by directly scanning the inode table.
>  A side-effect is paths would be scanned and displayed in a random order. A 
> new option, ex. "-direct" or "-fast", would likely be required to avoid 
> compatibility issues.
> PS: This enhancement is valid only if the path is root directory {{/}}
