Runping Qi commented on HADOOP-2119:
------------------------------------

Yes,  the #running-mappers kept on going up and went beyond the actual number 
of RUNNING mappers on the task trackers (which is roughly 3 * NUMBER OF TASK 
TRACKERS).

The problem happened consistently, and easy (for me) to reproduce. 
The job has 0 reducer, just scans through a large input data set, and the 
mappers do not write anything out.


I've killed the jobtracker, thus cannot do "kill -3" anymore.


> JobTracker becomes non-responsive if the task trackers finish task too fast

> I ran a job with 0 reducer on a cluster with 390 nodes.
> The mappers ran very fast.
> The jobtracker lacks behind on committing completed mapper tasks.
> The number of running mappers displayed on web UI getting bigger and bigger.
> The jos tracker eventually stopped responding to web UI.
> No progress is reported afterwards.
> Job tracker is running on a separate node.
> The job tracker process consumed 100% cpu, with vm size 1.01g (reach the heap 
> space limit).
