Capacity scheduler should initialize tasks asynchronously ---------------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-4513 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4513 Project: Hadoop Core Issue Type: Bug Components: contrib/capacity-sched Affects Versions: 0.19.0 Reporter: Hemanth Yamijala Assignee: Sreekanth Ramakrishnan Currently, the capacity scheduler initializes tasks on demand, as opposed to the eager initialization technique used by the default scheduler. This is done in order to save JT memory footprint. However, the initialization is done in the {{assignTasks}} API which is not a good idea as task initialization could be a time consuming operation. This JIRA is to move out the initialization outside the {{assignTasks}} API and do it asynchronously. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
