> Currently each inode stores its full path in the fsimage. I'd propose to
> store the local name instead. In order for each inode to identify its parent,
> all inodes in a directory tree are stored in the image in in-order. This
> proposal also requires each directory stores the number of its children in
> image.
> This proposal would bring a few benefits as pointed below and therefore
> speedup the image loading and saving.
> # Remove the overhead of converting java-UTF8 encoded local name to
> string-represented full path then to UTF8 encoded full path when saving to an
> image and vice versa when loading the image.
> # Remove the overhead of traversing the full path when inserting the inode to
> its parent inode.
> # Reduce the number of temporary java objects during the process of image
> loading or saving and therefore reduce the GC overhead.
> # Reduce the size of an image.
