Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-928:
-------------------------------------

The sum buffer should probably be no smaller than the default and also should be flushed no more frequently than the main buffer. So that would indicate that it be sized to the larger of io.file.buffer.size and bufferSize/bytesPerSum. Does that sound right to you?
make checksums optional per FileSystem
--------------------------------------

Key: HADOOP-928
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-928
Project: Hadoop
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: fs
Reporter: Doug Cutting
Assigned To: Hairong Kuang
Attachments: checksum.patch, checksum1.patch, checksum2.patch


Checksumming is currently built into the base FileSystem class. It should instead be optional, with each FileSystem implementation electing whether to use the Hadoop-provided checksum system, or to disable it, or to implement its own custom checksum system.
To implement this, a ChecksumFileSystem implementation can be provided that wraps another FileSystem implementation, implementing checksums as in Hadoop's current mandatory implementation (i.e., as a separate crc file per file that's elided from directory listings). The 'raw' FileSystem methods would be removed. FSDataInputStream and FSDataOutputStream would be made interfaces.
