Jason Lowe commented on MAPREDUCE-4842:
---------------------------------------
I think this approach will work. One nit is we may want to rename
checkAndRestartMerge() to something like onSuccessfulMerge() since that's a
more general concept and accurately reflects when the method will be called.

> Saw an instance where the shuffle caused multiple reducers in a job to hang.
> It looked similar to the problem described in MAPREDUCE-3721, where the
> fetchers were all being told to WAIT by the MergeManager but no merge was
> taking place.
