(was: tedyu has commented on the revision "[jira] [HBASE-5074] Support 
checksums in HBase block cache".

  Good job, Dhruba.

  I like this comment from HFileSystem:

  + * In future, if we want to make hlogs be in a different filesystem,
  + * this is the place to make it happen.

  I only see one setVerifyChecksum() call in the HFileSystem ctor.
  The readfs is used by createReaderWithEncoding().

  Shall we give readfs more flexibility where checksum verification can be 
configured dynamically ?

> The current implementation of HDFS stores the data in one block file and the 
> metadata(checksum) in another block file. This means that every read into the 
> HBase block cache actually consumes two disk iops, one to the datafile and 
> one to the checksum file. This is a major problem for scaling HBase, because 
> HBase is usually bottlenecked on the number of random disk iops that the 
> storage-hardware offers.
