Joydeep Sen Sarma commented on MAPREDUCE-2027:
----------------------------------------------

Scott - do you want to take care of the other issue you found (different logic 
for starting reducer in JIP vs. FS) in this one as well?

> fair share scheduler causes unnecessary preemption under some conditions

> When the cluster hits speculative cap - JobInProgress does not speculate any 
> more. however FairShare Scheduler continues to believe that tasks need to be 
> speculated.
> Under such conditions, FS Scheduler will start preempting repeatedly (because 
> from it's perspective - certain jobs are not getting the slots they deserve 
> (for speculative tasks)).
> There may be other reasons for excessive preemption as well - this one stood 
> out clearly.
