One question: JobClient sets replication of job.jar to 10, but without
waiting for namenode to actually do the replication, submits job. The
replication requests are sent to datanodes in 3-4 seconds after namenode
receives it. Mostly, the job already starts running in those 3-4 seconds.
Should JobClient wait for the namenode to actually replicate job.jar before
submitting job ?
