---------------------------------------

Is anyone from Yahoo working on this? It's pretty straightforward to add a 
config option.

> Upate thread in FairScheduler runs too frequently

> 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.
