> Some applications like the TT/JT (pre-2.0) and probably the RM/NM cycle
> through DistributedFileSystem objects reasonably frequently. So long as they
> call close() it isn't a big problem, except that currently DFSClient.close()
> doesn't explicitly close the SocketCache. So unless a full GC runs (causing
> the references to get finalized), many SocketCaches can get orphaned, each
> with many open sockets inside. We should fix the close() function to close
> all cached sockets.
