[jira] Created: (HDFS-855) namenode can save images in parallel to all directories in fs.name.dir

namenode can save images in parallel to all directories in fs.name.dir
----------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HDFS-855
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-855
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: name-node
            Reporter: dhruba borthakur


The namenode restart times can be reduced if the namenode can save its image to multiple directories (specified in fs.name.dir) in parallel.

The NN has a 6 GB fsimage and 1 MB edits file. The NN needed 10 minutes to load fsimage/edits into memory. It needs 7 minutes to read the 6 GB image. There are two directories in fs.name.dir.  it takes about 2 minute to save the image into first directory and another 2 minutes to save the image to the second directory.
