Dick King commented on MAPREDUCE-1354:
--------------------------------------

The regression failure flagged by Hudson, {{TestJobStatusPersistency}} , does 
not repeat, and is hugely unlikely to have been caused by this patch.

There is no new test because this patch fixes an extremely narrow race 
condition and that race cannot be induced artificially.

> Incremental enhancements to the JobTracker for better scalability

> It'd be nice to have the JobTracker object not be locked while accessing the 
> HDFS for reading the jobconf file and while writing the jobinfo file in the 
> submitJob method. We should see if we can avoid taking the lock altogether.
