Liang Xie commented on HDFS-4697:
---------------------------------

If that's true, the sequence read in HBase, e.g. large scan is suboptimal, 
right?   nice finding!
                
> short-circuit reads do not honor readahead settings

>             Project: Hadoop HDFS
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: hdfs-client
>    Affects Versions: 2.0.3-alpha

> Neither the new nor the legacy short-circuit read implementations honor 
> {{dfs.datanode.readahead.bytes}}.  This can result in scenarios where 
> non-short-circuit reads are faster for long reads, simply because they are 
> doing more readahead, and SCR is not.  We should do readahead in both cases 
> if it is configured.
