one minor comment:
Initialization for stats can be done inline. And comments to the stats, 
describing what the stats are for, can be added.

Otherwise, Changes look fine to me.

> We had one job with speculative execution hang.
> 4 reduce tasks were stuck with 95% completion because of a bad disk. 
> Devaraj pointed out 
> bq . One of the conditions that must be met for launching a speculative 
> instance of a task is that it must be at least 20% behind the average 
> progress, and this is not true here.
> It would be nice if speculative execution also starts up when tasks stop 
> making progress.
> Devaraj suggested 
> bq. Maybe, we should introduce a condition for average completion time for 
> tasks in the speculative execution check.
