> We've been here before (HADOOP-2341).
> Today the rapleaf gave me an lsof listing from a regionserver.  Had thousands of open sockets to datanodes all in ESTABLISHED and CLOSE_WAIT state.  On average they seem to have about ten file descriptors/sockets open per region (They have 3 column families IIRC.  Per family, can have between 1-5 or so mapfiles open per family -- 3 is max... but compacting we open a new one, etc.).
> They have thousands of regions.   400 regions -- ~100G, which is not that much -- takes about 4k open file handles.
> If they want a regionserver to server a decent disk worths -- 300-400G -- then thats maybe 1600 regions... 16k file handles.  If more than just 3 column families..... then we are in danger of blowing out limits if they are 32k.
> We've been here before with HADOOP-2341.
> A dfsclient that used non-blocking i/o would help applications like hbase (The datanode doesn't have this problem as bad -- CLOSE_WAIT on regionserver side, the bulk of the open fds in the rapleaf log, don't have a corresponding open resource on datanode end).
> Could also just open mapfiles as needed, but that'd kill our random read performance and its bad enough already.
