             Summary: List a large directory, the client waits for a long time
                 Key: HDFS-16081
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-16081
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: hdfs-client
            Reporter: lei w


When we list a large directory, we need to wait a lot of time. This is because 
the NameNode only returns the number of files corresponding to dfs.ls.limit 
each time, and then the client iteratively obtains the remaining files. But in 
many scenarios, we only need to know part of the files in the current 
directory, and then process this part of the file. After processing, go to get 
the remaining files. So can we add a limit on the number of ls files and return 
it to the client after obtaining the specified number of files ?
