Vinod K V commented on HADOOP-5185:
-----------------------------------
Agree Matei. In any case, making this configurable will only help the cause. An
update - running JT with a 5 second update interval(instead of the default
500ms) on a 400 node cluster seemed to improve JT's serving of requests when
compared to previous runs. Will submit a patch making the interval configurable.

> Reporter: Vinod K V
>
> The UpdateThread in FairScheduler runs every 500ms (hardcoded). This proves
> to be very costly when running large clusters. UpdateThread tries to acquire
> lock on JT object every that often and so seriously affects HeartBeat
> processing besides everything else. The update interval should be a function
> of the cluster size. Or in the minimum it should be configurable and by
> default should be set to a reasonably high default value.
