             Summary: libhdfs++: rationalize ioservice interactions
                 Key: HDFS-10796
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-10796
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Sub-task
            Reporter: Bob Hansen


Firstly, we should be pulling the number of threads from options.io_threads (which should default to std::thread::hardware_concurrency()).  The library should pass all tests always with io_threads set to 1 or to <a very high number>

Secondly, we should have _a_ constructor where the consumer doesn't need to manage the IOService explicitly, and the FileSystemImpl should create its own internally.

Since the FileSystem is defined as being for a particular user/identity, there is a valid use case for the consumer to be constructing many FileSystem instances to represent many authenticated users in the same process, but want to share resources (notably have a single io_service shared amongst them all).  In this case, the consumer would want to own the IOService and pass the same instance to multiple FileSystem instances.
