Lisheng Sun commented on HDFS-14283:
------------------------------------
Thanks [~smeng] for good comment and review.
Current *block.getCachedLocations()* which doesn't get DNs in priority order. I
think your option that some DN could become a hotspot. So i add priority order
for cache locations.
But i have a problem that current *block.getLocations()* which gets a list of
DataNodes in priority order does not consider choosed DN LOAD, bandwidth etc. I
think it is necessary to add this logic later.
Please correct me if I was wrong.

> HDFS Caching offers performance benefits. However, currently NameNode does
> not treat cached replica with higher priority, so HDFS caching is only useful
> when cache replication = 3, that is to say, all replicas are cached in
> memory, so that a client doesn't randomly pick an uncached replica.
> HDFS-6846 proposed to let NameNode give higher priority to cached replica.
> Changing a logic in NameNode is always tricky so that didn't get much
> traction. Here I propose a different approach: let client (DFSInputStream)
> prefer cached replica.
> A {{LocatedBlock}} object already contains cached replica location so a
> client has the needed information. I think we can change
> {{DFSInputStream#getBestNodeDNAddrPair()}} for this purpose.
