> limit running tasks per job

> Key: HADOOP-2573
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2573
> Project: Hadoop Core
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: mapred
> Reporter: Doug Cutting
>
> It should be possible to specify a limit to the number of tasks per job
> permitted to run simultaneously. If, for example, you have a cluster of 50
> nodes, with 100 map task slots and 100 reduce task slots, and the configured
> limit is 25 simultaneous tasks/job, then four or more jobs will be able to
> run at a time. This will permit short jobs to pass longer-running jobs.
> This also avoids some problems we've seen with HOD, where nodes are
> underutilized in their tail, and it should permit improved input locality.
