Owen O'Malley resolved HADOOP-848.
----------------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

The randomwriter already turns off speculative execution in its JobConf. It 
will only be a problem if the hadoop-site.xml overrides the setting. Therefore, 
this is a configuration issue rather than a problem with random writer.

> randomwriter generates too many errors of type: 
> org.apache.hadoop.dfs.AlreadyBeingCreatedException

> I suspect this is due to the the fact that randomwriter doesn't use the
