                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2180
             Project: Hadoop
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: mapred
            Reporter: Runping Qi



I noticed that sometimes, a tasktracker started 2 or three speculative mapper 
tasks.
That seems counter productive. You want to speculative execution complete as 
soon as possible.
Thus, it is better to spread speculative execution over multiple trackers. A 
simple way to 
achieve that is to limit the number of speculative eecution concurrently.
