(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.
