> On my development machine, Ubuntu's snap package system has various /snap 
> directories mounted as loop devices:
> {noformat}
> /dev/loop3          83328     83328          0 100% 
> /snap/gtk-common-themes/1534
> /dev/loop2         508928    508928          0 100% /snap/gnome-42-2204/132

> DiskIoMgr is allocating 8 threads for each of these devices, so my system has 
> 344 disk-io-mgr threads of which 152 are for loop devices. This also causes 
> there to be an equivalent number of hdfs-monitor threads. This makes 
> minidumps larger and take longer to process. It also slows down pstack and 
> other tools.
> These loop devices are not real devices and they shouldn't matter in a 
> production cluster. DiskIoMgr should not maintain a queue and spawn threads 
> for them.
