Arun C Murthy updated HADOOP-2639:
----------------------------------

    Status: Open  (was: Patch Available)

HADOOP-2247 introduced code which relied on a buggy counter, so that was buggy 
indeed.

I'm not super sure, but looks to me with this patch that 
running{Maps/Reduces}Tasks are incremented more than once if we have 
speculative tasks, so it bothers me. 

Like Owen commented, there is a reason why this code is so - maybe the fix is 
to figure out why {{numRunningReduces}} is getting negative? That is why I 
think we can fix this differently...

> I started sort benchmark on 500 nodes. It has 40000 maps and 900 reducers.
> There are 11 reducers stuck in shuffle with 33% progress. I could see a node 
> down which ran 80 maps on it. And all these reducers are trying to fetch map 
> output from that node.
