> One of most often asked question regarding Hadoop performance is: was the job cpu bounded, or disk bounded, or  network bounded.
> The first two parts can be answered based on metric data of individual machines, thus are relatively easy to answer.
> The third part is much harder, especially for a large cluster. To unswer the question, we need to know the followings:
> 1. The network traffic to and from the nodes in the cluster
> 2. The network traffic going between node pairs through the switch they share
> 3. The network traffic going through the back links between the switches
> With these data, we can get a better insight on the relationship between  network bandwidth and hadoop performance.
> We need to instrument the Hadoop code to obtain the above data.
