> If a block is request by too many mappers/reducers (say, 3000) at the same 
> time, a BlockMissingException is thrown because it exceeds the upper limit (I 
> think 256 by default) of number of threads accessing the same block at the 
> same time. The DFSClient wil catch that exception and retry 3 times after 
> waiting for 3 seconds. Since the wait time is a fixed value, a lot of clients 
> will retry at about the same time and a large portion of them get another 
> failure. After 3 retries, there are about 256*4 = 1024 clients got the block. 
> If the number of clients are more than that, the job will fail.
