> The job init thread currently initializes one job at a time. However, this is 
> a lengthy and partly IO-bound process because all of the job's block 
> locations need to be resolved through the namenode and a map of them needs to 
> be built. It can take tens of seconds. As a result, the cluster sometimes 
> initializes jobs too slowly for full utilization to be achieved, if there are 
> many small jobs queued up. It would be better to have a pool of threads that 
> initialize multiple jobs in parallel. One thing to be careful of, however, is 
> not causing deadlocks or holding locks for too long in these threads.
