                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1867
             Project: Hadoop
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Doug Cutting


To simplify configuration, we should use a single parameter to indicate a 
node's available RAM.  Sites should not need to adjust more than this single 
parameter to configure nodes available memory.  In task JVMs, some significant 
percentage of the memory should be reserved for application code, with the 
remainder divided among various system buffers.
