huge log files
--------------
Key: HADOOP-953
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-953
Project: Hadoop
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 0.10.1
Environment: N/A
Reporter: Andrew McNabb
On our system, it's not uncommon to get 20 MB of logs with each MapReduce job.
It would be very helpful if it were possible to configure Hadoop daemons to
write logs only when major things happen, but the only conf options I could
find are for increasing the amount of output. The disk is really a bottleneck
for us, and I believe that short jobs would run much more quickly with less
disk usage. We also believe that the high disk usage might be triggering a
kernel bug on some of our machines, causing them to crash. If the 20 MB of
logs went down to 20 KB, we would probably still have all of the information we
needed.
Thanks!
