Aaron Kimball commented on MAPREDUCE-679:
-----------------------------------------
I don't see why using some additional XML writing library is necessary. I have
already provided a unit test which ensures that the output of this page is
well-formed XML. (For what it's worth, none of the other JSPs have any unit
tests at all.) Perhaps there is a broader problem of refactoring the existing
JSPs to ensure that all generated HTML/XML is well-formed, but that is outside
the scope of this issue.
I'll get rid of the buffered job history and pass in a writer; expect a new
patch for that soon.

> In HADOOP-4559, a general REST API for reporting metrics was proposed but
> work seems to have stalled. In the interim, we have a simple XML translation
> of the existing JobTracker status page which provides the same metrics
> (including the tables of running/completed/failed jobs) as the human-readable
> page. This is a relatively lightweight addition to provide some
> machine-understandable metrics reporting.
