Todd Lipcon commented on HDFS-13702:
------------------------------------

Removing all the HTrace stuff from the block reader path improved the 
performance of TeraValidate by about 20%, reduced CPU consumption of the job in 
LocalJobRunner mode by about 36%.

We could attempt to use the HTrace APIs in a fancier way to detect when tracing 
is not enabled, but I think we may be better off just removing it entirely. 
HTrace as a project is being retired. If we choose to re-introduce tracing (eg 
using OpenTracing) we should make sure to benchmark it more thoroughly. 
[~stack] what do you think?

> I am seeing DFSClient.newReaderTraceScope take ~15% CPU in a teravalidate 
> workload even when HTrace is disabled. This is because it stringifies several 
> integers. We should avoid all allocation and stringification when htrace is 
> disabled.
