Bikas Saha commented on MAPREDUCE-4815: --------------------------------------- Does this code user FileSystem or specifically DistributedFileSystem (HDFS)? If the former, then how does this relate to the comment [~eric14] made earlier about cloud stores? > FileOutputCommitter.commitJob can be very slow for jobs with many output files > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: MAPREDUCE-4815 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-4815 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Bug > Components: mrv2 > Affects Versions: 0.23.3, 2.0.1-alpha > Reporter: Jason Lowe > Assignee: Bikas Saha > > If a job generates many files to commit then the commitJob method call at the > end of the job can take minutes. This is a performance regression from 1.x, > as 1.x had the tasks commit directly to the final output directory as they > were completing and commitJob had very little to do. The commit work was > processed in parallel and overlapped the processing of outstanding tasks. In > 0.23/2.x, the commit is single-threaded and waits until all tasks have > completed before commencing. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
