[jira] [Commented] (MAPREDUCE-2149) Distcp : setup with update is too slow when latency is high

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-2149?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16140953#comment-16140953 ]

------------------------------------

I don't appear to have rights to change the resolution status here, but note that the true resolution of this JIRA is not "Fixed" as indicated, but instead "Duplicate" (of MAPREDUCE-2765, which introduces DistCp2 for YARN/MR2).

> If you run distcp with '-update' option, for _each of the files_ present on source cluster setup invokes a separate RPC to destination cluster to fetch file info. 
> Usually this overhead is not very noticeable when both cluster are geographically close to each other. But if the latency is large, setup could take couple of orders of magnitude longer.
> E.g. : source has 10k directories, each with about 10 files, round trip latency between source and destination is 75 ms (typical for coast-to-coast clusters). 
> If we run distcp on source cluster, set up would take about _2.5 hours_ irrespective of whether destination has these files or not. '-lsr' on the same dest dir from source cluster would take up to 12 min (depending on how many directories already exist on dest). 
>   * A fairly simple fix to how setup() iterates should bring the set up time to same as '-lsr'. I will have a patch for this.. (though 12 min is too large).
>   * A more scalable option is to differ update check to mappers.
