Ted Yu commented on HBASE-18309:
--------------------------------
bq. hbase.rootdir is /tmp/hbase
Please use directory outside of /tmp as rootdir (just to avoid cleanup in /tmp
from other process).
The sorting in current code base would clean large directory first.
So simulation should have skewed distribution.
> Support multi threads in CleanerChore

> There is only one thread in LogCleaner to clean oldWALs and in our big
> cluster we find this is not enough. The number of files under oldWALs reach
> the max-directory-items limit of HDFS and cause region server crash, so we
> use multi threads for LogCleaner and the crash not happened any more.
