This > effectively means that if tasks hang (either due to bad user code or machine > related issue), these tasks never encounters a timeout. This causes the > entire job to hang. > I propose that hadoop streaming not set the timeout to 0. By default, the > settings in hadoop-default.xml should be effective for streaming jobs. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
