             Summary: Add a query option to simulate catalogd HDFS listing 
delays
                 Key: IMPALA-10219
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-10219
             Project: IMPALA
          Issue Type: Sub-task
            Reporter: Vihang Karajgaonkar
            Assignee: Vihang Karajgaonkar


This parent issue (IMPALA-6671) caused serious query backlog on large setups 
where namenode response times are slower for whatever reasons. While you can 
tune the namenode to some extent it is still problematic that Impala HDFS 
operations which happen while holding the table lock block other unrelated 
queries.

In order to simulate such problems in the product it would be nice to introduce 
a query option which adds a artificial delay in the RPCs to namenode when the 
table is being loaded. A query option is preferred over service level 
configuration since, that way it is easier to model a slow blocking query and a 
unrelated fast query in the test suite.
