[jira] Commented: (HDFS-1195) Offer rate limits for replicating data

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1195?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12877097#action_12877097 ] 

Allen Wittenauer commented on HDFS-1195:
----------------------------------------

I think the rate is currently tied to the heartbeat, IIRC.

> If a rack of Hadoop nodes goes down, there is a lot of data to re-replicate.  It would be great to have a configuration option to rate-limit the amount of bandwidth used for re-replication so as not to saturate network backlinks.  There is a similar option for rate limiting the speed at which a DFS rebalance takes place: dfs.balance.bandwidthPerSec.
