Vinod K V commented on HADOOP-5785: ----------------------------------- bq.If not a method, it can be a simple protected boolean OutputCommitter.isJobSetupNeeded over-ridable by subclasses. Does that work? I take that back. Even reading this variable on the JobTracker needs the class to be loaded which in turn means running user code. So, +1 for the initial proposal for a configuration property. +1 for job-level configuration. > The job setup and cleanup tasks should be optional > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-5785 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-5785 > Project: Hadoop Core > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: mapred > Reporter: Owen O'Malley > Assignee: Amareshwari Sriramadasu > > For jobs that require low latency and do not require setup or cleanup tasks > for the job, it should be possible to turn them off for that job. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
