Todd Lipcon updated HDFS-3280:
------------------------------
Attachment: hdfs-3280.txt
Trivial patch should fix the issue. I'll verify with an HLog benchmark on a
cluster as well.
This is definitely correct since the method is just a one-line call to another
method which is unsynchronized.
> DFSOutputStream.sync should not be synchronized

> HDFS-895 added an optimization to make hflush() much faster by
> unsynchronizing it. But, we forgot to un-synchronize the deprecated
> {{sync()}} wrapper method. This makes the HBase WAL really slow on 0.23+
> since it doesn't take advantage of HDFS-895 anymore.
