------------------------------

    Assignee:     (was: Todd Lipcon)

Hey folks. Sorry I let this one drop off my radar for a couple years :) I don't think I'll have time to work on it in the coming months, so if you want to take it over, go ahead. I think the remaining issue was that the test coverage is still a little weak (and will probably need significant rebasing for 2.x/3.x)

> I've seen this for a long time, and imagine it's a known issue, but couldn't find an existing JIRA. It often happens that we see the NN schedule replication on the last block of files very quickly after they're completed, before the other DNs in the pipeline have a chance to report the new block. This results in a lot of extra replication work on the cluster, as we replicate the block and then end up with multiple excess replicas which are very quickly deleted.
