> Reporter: Thomas Graves
> Assignee: Thomas Graves

>
> The current TaskLauncher serially launches new tasks one at a time. During
> the launch it does the localization and then starts the map/reduce task.
> This can cause any other tasks to be blocked waiting for the current task to
> be localized and started. In some instances we have seen a task that has a
> large file to localize (1.2MB) block another task for about 40 minutes. This
> particular task being blocked was a cleanup task which caused the job to be
> delayed finishing for the 40 minutes.
