BELUGA BEHR updated HDFS-14295:
-------------------------------
    Description: 
When a DataNode data transfers a block, is spins up a new thread for each 
transfer.  
[Here|https://github.com/apache/hadoop/blob/trunk/hadoop-hdfs-project/hadoop-hdfs/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hdfs/server/datanode/DataNode.java#L2339]
 and 
[Here|https://github.com/apache/hadoop/blob/trunk/hadoop-hdfs-project/hadoop-hdfs/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hdfs/server/datanode/DataNode.java#L3019-L3022].
   Instead, add the threads to a {{CachedThreadPool}} so that when their 
threads complete the transfer, they can be re-used for another transfer. This 
should save resources spent on creating and spinning up transfer threads.

One thing I'll point out that's a bit off, which I address in this patch, ...

There are two places in the code where a {{DataTransfer}} thread is started. In 
[one 
place|https://github.com/apache/hadoop/blob/trunk/hadoop-hdfs-project/hadoop-hdfs/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hdfs/server/datanode/DataNode.java#L2339-L2341],
 it's started in a default thread group. In [another 
place|https://github.com/apache/hadoop/blob/trunk/hadoop-hdfs-project/hadoop-hdfs/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hdfs/server/datanode/DataNode.java#L3019-L3022],
 it's started in the 
[dataXceiverServer|https://github.com/apache/hadoop/blob/trunk/hadoop-hdfs-project/hadoop-hdfs/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hdfs/server/datanode/DataNode.java#L1164]
 thread group.

I do not think it's correct to include any of these threads in the 
{{dataXceiverServer}} thread group. Anything submitted to the 
{{dataXceiverServer}} should probably be tied to the 
{{dfs.datanode.max.transfer.threads}} configurations, and neither of these 
methods are. Instead, they should be submitted into the same thread pool with 
its own thread group (probably the default thread group, unless someone 
suggests otherwise) and is what I have included in this patch.
