> If you have a large number of files in HDFS, the fsimage file is very big. When the namenode restarts, it writes a copy of the fsimage to all directories configured in fs.name.dir. This takes a long time, especially if there are many directories in fs.name.dir. Make the NN write the fsimage to all these directories in parallel.
