Eli Collins commented on HDFS-1108:
-----------------------------------
Per above we can remove the conf option since we only need to do this if append
or shared edits dir is enabled right? Can modify the test to only run if that's
the case (or perhaps check the inverse behavior if appends or shared edits are
not enabled).

> The current HDFS design says that newly allocated blocks for a file are not
> persisted in the NN transaction log when the block is allocated. Instead, a
> hflush() or a close() on the file persists the blocks into the transaction
> log. It would be nice if we can immediately persist newly allocated blocks
> (as soon as they are allocated) for specific files.
