-/** Keep track of under replication blocks.
- * Blocks have replication priority, with priority 0 indicating the highest
- * Blocks have only one replicas has the highest
+/**
+ * Keep prioritized queues of under replicated blocks.
+ * Blocks have replication priority, with priority {@link #QUEUE_HIGHEST_PRIORITY}
+ * indicating the highest priority.
+ * </p>
+ * Having a prioritised queue allows the {@link BlockManager} to select
+ * which blocks to replicate first -it tries to give priority to data
+ * that is most at risk or considered most valuable.
+ *
+ * <p/>
+ * The policy for choosing which priority to give added blocks
+ * is implemented in {@link #getPriority(Block, int, int, int)}.
+ * </p>
+ * <p>The queue order is as follows:</p>
+ * <ol>
+ *   <li>{@link #QUEUE_HIGHEST_PRIORITY}: the blocks that must be replicated
+ *   first. That is blocks with only one copy, or blocks with zero live
+ *   copies but a copy in a node being decommissioned. These blocks
+ *   are at risk of loss if the disk or server on which they
+ *   remain fails.</li>
+ *   <li>{@link #QUEUE_VERY_UNDER_REPLICATED}: blocks that are very
+ *   under-replicated compared to their expected values. Currently
+ *   that means the ratio of the ratio of actual:expected means that
+ *   there is <i>less than</i> 1:3.</li>. These blocks may not be at risk,
+ *   but they are clearly considered "important".
+ *   <li>{@link #QUEUE_UNDER_REPLICATED}: blocks that are also under
+ *   replicated, and the ratio of actual:expected is good enough that
+ *   they do not need to go into the {@link #QUEUE_VERY_UNDER_REPLICATED}
+ *   queue.</li>
+ *   <li>{@link #QUEUE_REPLICAS_BADLY_DISTRIBUTED}: there are as least as
+ *   many copies of a block as required, but the blocks are not adequately
+ *   distributed. Loss of a rack/switch could take all copies off-line.</li>
+ *   <li>{@link #QUEUE_WITH_CORRUPT_BLOCKS} This is for blocks that are corrupt
+ *   and for which there are no-non-corrupt copies (currently) available.
+ *   The policy here is to keep those corrupt blocks replicated, but give
+ *   blocks that are not corrupt higher priority.</li>
+ * </ol>
