[jira] [Commented] (HADOOP-10048) LocalDirAllocator should avoid holding locks while accessing the filesystem

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-10048?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15292506#comment-15292506 ] 

Junping Du commented on HADOOP-10048:
-------------------------------------

The patch is a bit old. Kick off Jenkins test manually again. Will start to review it from there.
[~jlowe], this long existing issue is still valid now. Isn't it?

> As noted in MAPREDUCE-5584 and HADOOP-7016, LocalDirAllocator can be a bottleneck for multithreaded setups like the ShuffleHandler.  We should consider moving to a lockless design or minimizing the critical sections to a very small amount of time that does not involve I/O operations.
