Scott Carey updated MAPREDUCE-1906:
-----------------------------------

    Attachment: MAPREDUCE-1906-0.21.patch

This patch changes the default minimum TaskTracker > JobTracker heartbeat 
interval from 3000ms to 300ms.

Effectively, this makes clusters between 30 and 300 nodes increase their 
heartbeat rate to a cluster-wide 100 heartbeats per second.
Clusters larger than 300 nodes remain unchanged at a cluster-wide 100 
heartbeats per second.

Clusters with less than 30 nodes have a constant 300ms between pings per node. 
so for a 15 node cluster it is 50 heartbeats per second, and for a 3 node 
cluster it is 10 heartbeats per second.

> Lower minimum heartbeat interval for tasktracker > Jobtracker

> I get a 0% to 15% performance increase for smaller clusters by making the 
> heartbeat throttle stop penalizing clusters with less than 300 nodes.
> Between 0.19 and 0.20, the default minimum heartbeat interval increased from 
> 2s to 3s.   If a JobTracker is throttled at 100 heartbeats / sec for large 
> clusters, why should a cluster with 10 nodes be throttled to 3.3 heartbeats 
> per second?
