> Support optimistic file renames in the commit protocol
> ------------------------------------------------------

>                 Key: MAPREDUCE-7500
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-7500
>             Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: client
>         Environment: The commit protocol in FileOutputCommitter now supports 
> optimistic commits for files. This saves a FileSystem.getFileStatus call for 
> cases where it is unexpected to have conflict in the destination location at 
> commit time (e.g. Spark). This feature is disabled by default. To enable it 
> set mapreduce.fileoutputcommitter.optimistic.file.commit.enabled=true.

> During a file commit in FileOutputCommitter, it assumes a file may be in the 
> destination location and if so will delete it first. This means for every 
> file commit is calls FileSystem.getFileStatus for the destination. For the 
> Spark use case, there will be nothing existing in the destination location 
> for the expected case so the getFileStatus call is wasted in all, but 
> exceptional and unexpected cases.
> The getFileStatus call can take significant time. When I profiled a commit in 
> our environment (HDFS, intermittent latency issues) the 
> FileSystem.getFileStatus call takes 50% of the commit time. We have an 
> aggressive auto-msync setting, but even when I disabled msync I saw the same 
> behavior. I attached an example flame graph for the commit time 
> (getFileStatus time is highlighted in pink).
> To avoid the time spent on getFileStatus, there should be an option to 
> optimistically commit the file assuming there will be no conflict in the 
> destination.
