             Summary: S3A getContentSummary() to move to listFiles(recursive) to count children; instrument use
                 Key: HADOOP-13704
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-13704
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: fs/s3
    Affects Versions: 2.8.0
            Reporter: Steve Loughran


Hive and a bit of Spark use {{getContentSummary()} to get some summary stats of a filesystem. This is very expensive on S3A (and any other object store), especially as the base implementation does the recursive tree walk.

Because of HADOOP-13208, we have a full enumeration of files under a path without directory costs...S3A can/should switch to this to speed up those places where the operation is called.

Also
* API call needs FS spec and contract tests
* S3A could instrument invocation, so as to enable real-world popularity to be measured
