jobs using pipes interface with tasks not using java output format have a good
chance of not updating progress and timing out
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-1983
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1983
Project: Hadoop
Issue Type: Bug
Components: pipes
Affects Versions: 0.15.0
Reporter: Christian Kunz
When using C++-pipes interface, mappers/reducers not emitting any key-values
pairs, but running longer than 'mapred.task.timeout' might timeout even when
they send periodical status updates upstream.
The cause of the problem is that all upstream messages are buffered. Progress
and status updates should be flushed immediately.
