> Currently the map task runner creates a thread that calls progress every
> second to keep the system from killing the map if the sort takes too long.
> This is the wrong approach, because it will cause stuck tasks to not be
> killed. The right solution is to have the sort call progress as it actually
> makes progress. This is part of what is going on in HADOOP-1374. A map gets
> stuck at 100% progress, but not done.
