-------------------------------------

Thanx [~hexiaoqiao] and [~Jim_Brennan] for the quick fix.
+1 for the second addendum. 
[~weichiu] can you give a check and conclude this, you must be having a better 
idea with this, I couldn't check the original patch. So...

> The performance of Active NameNode could be impact when {{Balancer}} requests 
> #getBlocks, since query blocks of overly full DNs performance is extremely 
> inefficient currently. The main reason is {{NameNodeRpcServer#getBlocks}} 
> hold read lock for long time. In extreme case, all handlers of Active 
> NameNode RPC server are occupied by one reader 
> {{NameNodeRpcServer#getBlocks}} and other write operation calls, thus Active 
> NameNode enter a state of false death for number of seconds even for minutes.
> The similar performance concerns of Balancer have reported by HDFS-9412, 
> HDFS-7967, etc.
> If Standby NameNode can shoulder #getBlocks heavy burden, it could speed up 
> the progress of balancing and reduce performance impact to Active NameNode.
