[jira] [Commented] (HDFS-958) Remove uneccessary creation of FileStatus objects in NameNode

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-958?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16148519#comment-16148519 ] 

Zhe Zhang commented on HDFS-958:
--------------------------------

Actually it does make sense to at least make it an option to avoid creating a {{FileStatus}} for each audit log. {{FSNamesystem#logAuditEvent}} only uses the {{FileStatus}} to log the permission, which is not really that necessary in many environments.

> NameNode creates FileStatus objects when
> 1. write audit logs
> 2. change file's lease
> The uses of FileStatus in these places are not necessary. We could use INode instead.
