Amar Kamat commented on HADOOP-5083:
------------------------------------

Dhruba, in this issue we are not purging jobs based on the memory usage. Here 
the jobs are purged as soon as they exceed _some_ amount of time in the 
jobtracker which by default is 1 min. There is another process that takes care 
of serving/displaying completed job info. HADOOP-4766 was opened to address 
what you want. Since completed jobs will no longer remain in the memory, there 
is no memory management required.

> Optionally a separate daemon should serve JobHistory

> Currently the JobTracker serves the JobHistory to end-users off files 
> local-disk/hdfs. While running very large clusters with a large user-base 
> might result in lots of traffic for job-history which needlessly taxes the 
> JobTracker. The proposal is to have an optional daemon which handles serving 
> of job-history requests.
