Arun C Murthy commented on MAPREDUCE-2835: ------------------------------------------ The problem with Counters is that they are per-task and, as a result, blow out the JobTracker with large jobs. It's fine to make it admin-configurable (not per-job). > Make per-job counter limits configurable > ---------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-2835 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-2835 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 0.20.204.0 > Reporter: Tom White > Assignee: Tom White > Attachments: MAPREDUCE-2835.patch, MAPREDUCE-2835.patch > > > The per-job counter limits introduced in MAPREDUCE-1943 are fixed, except for > the total number allowed per job (mapreduce.job.counters.limit). It would be > useful to make them all configurable. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
