Suresh Srinivas commented on HDFS-2699:
---------------------------------------
Dhruba, say CRC inlining is done and reduces number of IOPs by half. Does it
solve the number of IOPs bottleneck for HBase or does it just provide a relief?

> The current implementation of HDFS stores the data in one block file and the
> metadata(checksum) in another block file. This means that every read from
> HDFS actually consumes two disk iops, one to the datafile and one to the
> checksum file. This is a major problem for scaling HBase, because HBase is
> usually bottlenecked on the number of random disk iops that the
> storage-hardware offers.
