Allen Wittenauer updated MAPREDUCE-4058:
----------------------------------------

    Attachment: MAPREDUCE-4058-branch-1.0.patch

This patch adds a variable to the task-controller.cfg called 
'task.niceness.adjustment' that acts similarly to renice. Note that 
setpriority() is called while still root, allowing for the tasks to be set to a 
HIGHER priority than the TT, if someone so desires to.
                
> adjustable task priority

> For those of us that completely destroy our CPUs, it is beneficial to be able 
> to run user tasks at a different priority than the tasktracker. This would 
> allow for TTs (and by extension, DNs) to get more CPU clock cycles so that 
> things like heartbeats don't disappear.
