Arun C Murthy commented on HADOOP-2175:
---------------------------------------

Runping, the work we did on HADOOP-1158 should take care of situations like 
this one, no?

If you are satisfied, I'll close this issue...

> After a node fails 4 mappers (tasks), it is added to blacklist thus it will 
> no longer accept tasks.
> But, it will continue serve the map outputs of any mappers that ran 
> successfully there. 
> However, the node may not be able serve the map outputs either. 
> This will cause the reducers to mark the corresponding map outputs as from 
> slow hosts, 
> but continue to try to get the map outputs from that node.
> This may lead to waiting forever.
