Harsh J commented on HDFS-1804:
-------------------------------
bq. I doubt seriously this will be a problem at all in practice, so let's hold
off on doing so until it does. It wouldn't be tough to do, but I don't think
the added code complexity is warranted.
Ok, makes sense. Thanks for placing in the other changes.
Also thanks to Chris for the review!

> HDFS-1120 introduced pluggable block-volume choosing policies, but still
> carries the vanilla RoundRobin as its default.
> An additional implementation that also takes into consideration the free
> space remaining on the disk (or other params) should be a good addition as an
> alternative to vanilla RR.
