> The TaskTracker's offerService loop doesn't handle exceptions, such as time
> outs well and will reset the task tracker. I believe this is the cause of
> most of the lost task trackers. The scenario looks like:
> 1. an rpc timeout in offerService
> 2. the task tracker cleans up (which takes 30 minutes with the task tracker
> locked up)
> 3. the task tracker is declared lost for not providing its heartbeat
