Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-133:
-------------------------------------

Searching around a bit, I found a few folks who suggest using -Xrs if you're 
seeing exit code 143, since this can be caused by signals.  So you might try 
adding -Xrs to mapred.child.java.opts and see if that helps any.

> The TaskTracker.Child.startPinging thread calls exit if the TaskTracker 
> doesn't respond. Calling exit in a mutli-threaded program is really 
> problematic. In particular, it prevents cleanup/finally clauses from running. 
> We need to move to a model where it uses Thread.interrupt(), which means we 
> need to check the interrupt flag in place in the map loop and reduce loop and 
> stop masking the InterruptExceptions.
