Eric Payne commented on HDFS-3828:
----------------------------------
Since this patch has already been merged to trunk and branch 2, is this patch
still needed in 0.23? If not, can we close this issue?
> Block Scanner rescans blocks too frequently

> {{BlockPoolSliceScanner#scan}} calls cleanUp every time it's invoked from
> {{DataBlockScanner#run}} via {{scanBlockPoolSlice}}. But cleanUp
> unconditionally roll()s the verificationLogs, so after two iterations we have
> lost the first iteration of block verification times. As a result a cluster
> with just one block repeatedly rescans it every 10 seconds:
> {noformat}

> To fix this, we need to avoid roll()ing the logs multiple times per period.
