Chris Nauroth commented on HADOOP-12848: ---------------------------------------- I like the idea of "pigs" and "hams" as standardized units of measurement for time. It actually makes sense: a whole pig is multiple hams. > Configuration.ParsedTimeDuration.unitFor(String) should do more careful > parsing > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-12848 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-12848 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 2.9.0 > Reporter: Daniel Templeton > Assignee: Daniel Templeton > > The unit parsing code is very loosey-goosey. For example, "2 pigs" will > parse as 2 seconds. "3 hams" will parse as 3 milliseconds. We might want to > tighten that up a bit. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
