> When the namenode decides to exit safemode,  it acquires the FSNamesystem 
> lock and then iterates over all blocks in the blocksmap to determine if any 
> block has any excess replicas. This call takes upwards of 5 minutes on a 
> cluster that has 100 million blocks. This delays namenode restart to a good 
> extent.
