Moving to mapreduce-user@, bcc common-u...@. Please use project
specific lists.
mapreduce.reduce.slowstart.completed.maps is the right knob. Which
version of hadoop are you running? If it isn't working, please open a
jira. Thanks.

Hello,
I found in Hadoop that reducers starts when a fraction of the number
of mappers
is complete. However, in my case, I hope reducers to start only when
all mappers
are complete. I searched for Hadoop configuration parameters, and
found
mapred.reduce.slowstart.completed.maps, which seems to do what I
want. But no
matter what value (0.99, 1.00, etc) I set to
mapred.reduce.slowstart.completed.maps, reducers always start to
execute when
about 10% of mappers are complete.
Do I set the right parameter? Is there any other parameter I can use
for this
purpose?
Thanks,
