Devaraj Das commented on HADOOP-4906:
-------------------------------------

bq. I guess we need to just set defaultJobConf/localJobConf to null in 
TaskInProgress.cleanup for now
+1. I would say that we also nullify the TIP.diagnosticInfo since this is user 
settable too. Since a TIP has no other user settable data, and all TIPs of a 
particular job are removed when the latter completes, it should be okay to keep 
the TIPs in memory..

> Looks like the TaskTracker isn't cleaning up correctly after completed/failed 
> tasks, I suspect that the JobConfs aren't being deallocated. Eventually the 
> TaskTracker runs out of memory after running several tasks.
