> It is good to avoid running out of space in the middle of writing a batch of edits, because when it happens, we often get partial edits at the end of the log.
> Edit log preallocation can solve this problem (see HADOOP-2330 for a full description of edit log preallocation).
> The current pre-allocation code was introduced for performance reasons, not for preventing partial edits.  As a consequence, we sometimes do a write without using pre-allocation.  We should change the pre-allocation code so that it always preallocates at least enough space before writing out the edits.
