Re: Map tasks dont complete

[Raghu Rajagopalan]

Okay - tried some more tests - with a portion of the same input file:

1. with a 10 meg input file  - 1 map task (based on dfs block size of
64 M) - Pig + Hadoop runs successfully.  All Map tasks complete when
they reach 100%.  Normal, expected behavior

2. With a 300 Meg input file - 5 Map tasks  - Ran successfully - BUT -
many instances when map tasks wont complete on reaching 100% -
however, let them continue for sometime and eventually they were
marked complete. On the console, Pig output progress seems stuck for
quite sometime and then eventually moves forward as the map tasks
complete. Overall job execution took about 20 mins.

I'm quite okay at looking at src to find out what gives but dont know
where to start poking. Any help to get me off the ground would be
great.

thanks!
