During S3A rename() and delete() calls, the list of objects delete is
built up into batches of a thousand and then POSTed in a single large
DeleteObjects request.
But as the IO capacity allowed on an S3 partition may only be 3500 writes
per second *and* each entry in that POST counts as a single write, then
one of those posts alone can trigger throttling on an already loaded
S3 directory tree. Which can trigger backoff and retry, with the same
thousand entry post, and so recreate the exact same problem.
Fixes
* Page size for delete object requests is set in
fs.s3a.bulk.delete.page.size; the default is 250.
* The property fs.s3a.experimental.aws.s3.throttling (default=true)
can be set to false to disable throttle retry logic in the AWS
client SDK -it is all handled in the S3A client. This
gives more visibility in to when operations are being throttled
* Bulk delete throttling events are logged to the log
org.apache.hadoop.fs.s3a.throttled log at INFO; if this appears
often then choose a smaller page size.
* The metric "store_io_throttled" adds the entire count of delete
requests when a single DeleteObjects request is throttled.
* A new quantile, "store_io_throttle_rate" can track throttling
load over time.
* DynamoDB metastore throttle resilience issues have also been
identified and fixed. Note: the fs.s3a.experimental.aws.s3.throttling
flag does not apply to DDB IO precisely because there may still be
lurking issues there and it safest to rely on the DynamoDB client
SDK.
