             Summary: Add log category for long-running DFSClient notices
                 Key: HDFS-4486
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-4486
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Todd Lipcon
            Priority: Minor


There are a number of features in the DFS client which are transparent but can 
make a fairly big difference for performance -- two in particular are short 
circuit reads and native checksumming. Because we don't want log spew for 
clients like "hadoop fs -cat" we currently log only at DEBUG level when these 
features are disabled. This makes it difficult to troubleshoot/verify for 
long-running perf-sensitive clients like HBase.

One simple solution is to add a new log category - eg 
o.a.h.h.DFSClient.PerformanceAdvisory - which long-running clients could enable 
at DEBUG level without getting the full debug spew.
