[jira] Created: (HADOOP-2379) Distcp setup is slow

Distcp setup is slow
--------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-2379
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2379
             Project: Hadoop
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: dfs
    Affects Versions: 0.14.3
         Environment: from 35 node cluster to 10 node cluster
            Reporter: Johan Oskarsson
            Priority: Minor


When starting a distcp the setup phase often takes a very long time. For example during the distcp I just ran the setup phase took 15 minutes and the actual copy 3 minutes. Could this be improved? Or at least a progress bar added so the user doesn't think it stalled.

I also often see exceptions like this in the setup, but the distcp finishes eventually.

[jira] Commented: (HADOOP-2379) Distcp setup is slow

Posted by "Doug Cutting (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>.
    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2379?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_12549515 ] 

Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-2379:
--------------------------------------

This may be improved by HADOOP-2129, which improves the caching of FileStatus in DFS.  You might try applying that patch to 0.14.3...
