>             Project: Hadoop HDFS
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: hdfs-client
>    Affects Versions: 3.0.0-alpha2
>            Reporter: Fenghua Hu

> Currently in ShortCircuitCache, two TreeMap objects are used to track the cached replicas.
> private final TreeMap<Long, ShortCircuitReplica> evictable = new TreeMap<>();
> private final TreeMap<Long, ShortCircuitReplica> evictableMmapped = new TreeMap<>();
> TreeMap employs Red-Black tree for sorting. This isn't an issue when using traditional HDD. But when using high-performance SSD/PCIe Flash, the cost inserting/removing an entry  becomes considerable.
> To mitigate it, we designed a new list-based for replica tracking.
> The list is a double-linked FIFO. FIFO is time-based, thus insertion is a very low cost operation. On the other hand, list is not lookup-friendly. To address this issue, we introduce two references into ShortCircuitReplica object.
> ShortCircuitReplica next = null;
> ShortCircuitReplica prev = null;
> In this way, lookup is not needed when removing a replica from the list. We only need to modify its predecessor's and successor's references in the lists.
> Our tests showed up to 15-50% performance improvement when using PCIe flash as storage media.
> The original patch is against 2.6.4, now I am porting to Hadoop trunk, and patch will be posted soon.
