Wei-Chiu Chuang commented on HDFS-15473:
----------------------------------------

Ideally, you want to use an iterator to return partial results instead of 
returning all in an array.
The most number of snapshots in a production cluster that I have seen is ~ 10k 
range. Returning a few thousand snapshot entries may cause a short burst of 
requests in queue.

Also, can you add a metrics for the number of total snapshots?

> In a cluster where snapshots are highly used , it will benefit to have a 
> command to list all the snapshots under root
