Liang Xie commented on HDFS-6591:
---------------------------------

bq. so it appears that we never copy to buf in this code path. I only see a 
copy to buf inside the else path, when a hedged read actually happens. Did I 
miss something?
Because in the if path, we passed this byte[] bb (ByteBuffer.wrap(buf, offset, 
len)), it came from the original end-user input parameter. that's why we don't 
need to do a explicit copy:)

bq. Let's set isHedgedRead = false in a JUnit After method instead of at the 
end of individual methods.
seems you read "HDFS-6591.txt" patch, not "HDFS-6591-v2.txt" ?:)  i had moved 
it into a JUnit Before method per [~ajisakaa]'s suggestion, i assume it has a 
similar effect like moving into a After method, right? Please correct me if i'm 
wrong.

bq. Let's guarantee that output and input get closed. We can put the cleanup in 
a finally block and call IOUtils#cleanup.
yes, let me do it in patch v3.

bq. Is it actually useful to add the new metric for HedgedReadOpsLoopNum
During debugging, i feel it's very convenient to catch/verify some unnecessary 
loops, after a quick thinking, i didn't find any  other easier choice to catch 
such case. How about keeping it there. when we find it's a hotspot or this 
feature is stable enough, then remove it ?  (I can add a comment in v3 patch, 
so we'll easy to recall those stuff)

> I download hadoop-2.4.1-rc1 code from 
> http://people.apache.org/~acmurthy/hadoop-2.4.1-rc1/,  I test the  Hedged  
> Read. I find the while loop in hedgedFetchBlockByteRange method is executed 
> tens of thousands of times.
