> Project: Hadoop HDFS
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: hdfs client

>
> HDFS-959 suggests that the MAX_PACKETS variable (which determines how many
> outstanding data packets the DFSOutputStream will permit) may have an impact
> on performance. If so, we should make it configurable to trade off between
> memory and performance. I think it ought to be a secret/undocumented config
> for now - this will make it easier to benchmark without confusing users.
