Do not pull counters of non initialized jobs --------------------------------------------
Key: HIVE-1349 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1349 Project: Hadoop Hive Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Dmytro Molkov Right now hive client puts a lot of pressure on the jobtracker by pulling the counters of the job that has just been submitted and is in the process of initializing tasks. While the job initialized tasks and reads the splits file it is holding the JobInProgress lock. The getCounters method acquires a JobTracker lock and waits for the JobInProgress lock. Since the read of the file can take a couple (a couple of tens of seconds) the job tracker is effectively blocked for that period of time. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
