Bryan Pendleton commented on HADOOP-27:
---------------------------------------

I still think this issue is important. The point of MapReduce is to squeeze as 
much performance out of what you've got as possible. I regularly have machines 
with hundreds of gigs of space fail because one of their 4 drives is full. And, 
yes, the cascading failure problem is the real kicker. It sounds like your 
patch attacks both of those things - as soon as I have a chance, I'll test it 
against my current cluster and see how it performs.
