Miomir Boljanovic updated MAPREDUCE-4229: ----------------------------------------- Status: Patch Available (was: Open) > Intern counter names in the JT > ------------------------------ > > Key: MAPREDUCE-4229 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-4229 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: jobtracker > Affects Versions: 1.0.2 > Reporter: Todd Lipcon > > In our experience, most of the memory in production JTs goes to storing > counter names (String objects and character arrays). Since most counter names > are reused again and again, it would be a big memory savings to keep a hash > set of already-used counter names within a job, and refer to the same object > from all tasks. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
