Suresh Srinivas commented on HDFS-3697: --------------------------------------- Todd, I think we should add appropriate release notes, even though this is no incompatible, to call out attention to enabling this feature by default. BTW this is a good change! > Enable fadvise readahead by default > ----------------------------------- > > Key: HDFS-3697 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-3697 > Project: Hadoop HDFS > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: data-node, performance > Affects Versions: 3.0.0, 2.2.0-alpha > Reporter: Todd Lipcon > Assignee: Todd Lipcon > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 3.0.0, 2.2.0-alpha > > Attachments: hdfs-3697-branch-1.txt, hdfs-3697.txt, hdfs-3697.txt > > > The fadvise features have been implemented for some time, and we've enabled > them in production at a lot of customer sites without difficulty. I'd like to > enable the readahead feature by default in future versions so that users get > this benefit without any manual configuration required. > The other fadvise features seem to be more workload-dependent and need > further testing before enabling by default. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
