Rakesh R commented on HDFS-14402:
---------------------------------
bq. Upon making checksum configurable, I am thinking maybe to user, the cache
read performance is concerned mostly. The checksum is executed once when
caching data to DRAM/Pmem. It may be tolerable to user with checksum operation
for data verification. I think more discussions are required. I will open a
separate Jira common to DRAM and Pmem cache.
Yes, it makes sense to me to move the discussion to a separate jira. One use
case I can foresee that, if some user has concern about the sanity of data
while {{read-from-cache}} block then they will do checksum computation again at
read call. This is again depends on the NVMe device consistency level, I think.
In that case the checksum we did at the beginning can be skipped and not
worried about the sanity during {{write-to-cache}}.
