>
> Sometimes when a map task is lost while the map-output fetch is happening
> from the TT for that task, and the lost map has successfully executed on some
> other node, the event for that successful execution is lost at the fetching
> TT. The fetching TT might eventually fail to fetch the output for the lost
> task, but then since the event for the new run of the lost map might also
> have been lost, the fetching TT might hang.
> This "hung" problem was discovered while working on HADOOP-1060.
