> We've seen issues with large jobs (e.g.: 13,000 maps and 3,500 reduces) where 
> reducers fail to connect back to the AM after being launched due to 
> connection timeout.  Looking at stack traces of the AM during this time we 
> see a lot of IPC servers stuck waiting for a lock to get the application ID 
> while type converting the map completion events.  What's odd is that normally 
> getting the application ID should be very cheap, but in this case we're 
> type-converting thousands of map completion events for *each* reducer 
> connecting.  That means we end up type-converting the map completion events 
> over 45 million times during the lifetime of the example job (13,000 * 3,500).
> We either need to make the type conversion much cheaper (i.e.: lockless or at 
> least read-write locked) or, even better, store the completion events in a 
> form that does not require type conversion when serving them up to reducers.
