Devaraj Das updated HADOOP-1965: -------------------------------- Status: Open (was: Patch Available) Sorry for the late review on this one: 1) Remove sortAndSpillExceptionLock. Instead make sortAndSpillException volatile. 2) Avoid indentation changes of existing code as far as possible (unnecessary diffs). > Handle map output buffers better > -------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-1965 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1965 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: mapred > Affects Versions: 0.16.0 > Reporter: Devaraj Das > Assignee: Amar Kamat > Fix For: 0.16.0 > > Attachments: 1965_single_proc_150mb_gziped.jpeg, > 1965_single_proc_150mb_gziped.pdf, 1965_single_proc_150mb_gziped_breakup.png, > HADOOP-1965-1.patch, HADOOP-1965-Benchmark.patch, > HADOOP-1965-Benchmark.patch, HADOOP-1965-Benchmark.patch, > HADOOP-1965-Benchmark.patch, HADOOP-1965-Benchmark.patch, HADOOP-2419.patch, > HADOOP-2419.patch, HADOOP-2419.patch > > > Today, the map task stops calling the map method while sort/spill is using > the (single instance of) map output buffer. One improvement that can be done > to improve performance of the map task is to have another buffer for writing > the map outputs to, while sort/spill is using the first buffer. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
