reduce or remove usage of String.format() usage in CapacityTaskScheduler.updateQSIObjects -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MAPREDUCE-1533 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-1533 Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 0.20.1 Reporter: Rajesh Balamohan When short jobs are executed in hadoop with OutOfBandHeardBeat=true, JT executes heartBeat() method heavily. This internally makes a call to CapacityTaskScheduler.updateQSIObjects(). CapacityTaskScheduler.updateQSIObjects(), internally calls String.format() for setting the job scheduling information. Based on the datastructure size of "jobQueuesManager" and "queueInfoMap", the number of times String.format() gets executed becomes very high. String.format() internally does pattern matching which turns to be out very heavy (This was revealed while profiling JT. Almost 57% of time was spent in CapacityScheduler.assignTasks(), out of which String.format() took 46%. Would it be possible to do String.format() only at the time of invoking JobInProgress.getSchedulingInfo?. This might reduce the pressure on JT while processing heartbeats. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
