Ari Rabkin commented on HADOOP-3759: ------------------------------------ That'll teach me to comment before coffee. Hemanth -- Yes, I think it makes sense to pass the disk space via the new resourceMap. I won't have time to revise the disk space tracking for a week or two. Shall I open a JIRA, so we don't lose track? My only very slight qualm is that I'd rather avoid passing the names, as well as values, of the various resources we're tracking. As I understand, heartbeats are a bottleneck, so it's worth being frugal there. But probably it doesn't make sense to worry about that at this stage. We can do serialization magic later if it turns out to be worthwhile. > Provide ability to run memory intensive jobs without affecting other running > tasks on the nodes > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-3759 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-3759 > Project: Hadoop Core > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: mapred > Reporter: Hemanth Yamijala > Assignee: Hemanth Yamijala > Fix For: 0.19.0 > > Attachments: HADOOP-3759.patch, HADOOP-3759.patch, HADOOP-3759.patch > > > In HADOOP-3581, we are discussing how to prevent memory intensive tasks from > affecting Hadoop daemons and other tasks running on a node.
