Sharad Agarwal commented on MAPREDUCE-4358:
-------------------------------------------

This is already handled by actively looking at the available headroom for the 
job and ramp down (pre-empt) the reduces if needed. Are you seeing this issue 
in your cluster ?
                
> Reducers are assigned containers before all maps are assigned containers

> Reducers start to get containers before all maps are. We have seen this issue 
> and it is problematic since if there is no avaialable resources for the 
> remaining maps, the job will just stall where reducers are waiting for 
> mappers which are unable to start because there is no containers available.
