> The TaskTrackerInstrumentation class provides a useful way to capture key
> events at the TaskTracker for use in various reporting tools, but it is
> currently rather limited, because only one TaskTrackerInstrumentation can be
> added to a given TaskTracker and this objects receives minimal information
> about tasks (only their IDs). I propose enhancing the functionality through
> two changes:
> # Support a comma-separated list of TaskTrackerInstrumentation classes rather
> than just a single one in the JobConf, and report events to all of them.
> # Make the reportTaskLaunch and reportTaskEnd methods in
> TaskTrackerInstrumentation receive a reference to a whole Task object rather
> than just its TaskAttemptID. It might also be useful to make the latter
> receive the task's final state, i.e. failed, killed, or successful.
> I'm just posting this here to get a sense of whether this is a good idea. If
> people think it's okay, I will make a patch against trunk that implements
> these changes.
