Owen O'Malley resolved HADOOP-55. --------------------------------- Resolution: Duplicate I think the performance gains over the last 1.5 years have mostly fixed this. There is always more to do, but... > map-reduce job overhead is too high > ----------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-55 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-55 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Bug > Components: mapred > Affects Versions: 0.2.0 > Reporter: Yoram Arnon > Assignee: Sameer Paranjpye > Priority: Minor > > map-reduce job overhead is too high. Running a null map-reduce job, with no > input, no intermediate data and no output, on a several-hundred node cluster, > takes several minutes, rather than several seconds. > Enhanced distribution, launching and monitoring mechanisms should reduce the > overhead to levels that match human online patience for short jobs. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
