---------------------------------------------

I also have similar experience.

Also it is hard to explain what do the "Throughput" and "Average IO rate" 
really mean.  In [Kihwal's 
results|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-941?focusedCommentId=13050798&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-13050798],
 the value could be >100 MB/sec, which seems unreasonable.

> Datanode xceiver protocol should allow reuse of a connection

> Right now each connection into the datanode xceiver only processes one 
> operation.
> In the case that an operation leaves the stream in a well-defined state (eg a 
> client reads to the end of a block successfully) the same connection could be 
> reused for a second operation. This should improve random read performance 
> significantly.
