Robert Joseph Evans commented on MAPREDUCE-4647: ------------------------------------------------ Actually I do think I will do it in a generic way through YARN. I have taken a closer look at MAPREDUCE-967, and I see that mapreduce.job.jar.unpack.pattern is a user visible config that is now unused, so that is a regression. I am not really sure how big of a change this is going to require though, but hopefully it will not be too large. > We should only unjar jobjar if there is a lib directory in it. > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-4647 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-4647 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: mrv2 > Affects Versions: 0.23.3 > Reporter: Robert Joseph Evans > Assignee: Robert Joseph Evans > > For backwards compatibility we recently added made is so we would unjar the > job.jar and add anything to the classpath in the lib directory of that jar. > But this also slows job startup down a lot if the jar is large.
