Owen O'Malley commented on HADOOP-1900: --------------------------------------- I really really don't think the complexity is justified. If we have too many levels of back offs and retries it will be very hard to control the performance. I'd propose {code} heartbeatPeriodSeconds = min(2, slaveNodes / 10); {code} > the heartbeat and task event queries interval should be set dynamically by > the JobTracker > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-1900 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1900 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: mapred > Reporter: Owen O'Malley > Assignee: Amareshwari Sri Ramadasu > Attachments: patch-1900.txt, patch-1900.txt > > > The JobTracker should scale the intervals that the TaskTrackers use to > contact it dynamically, based on how the busy it is and the size of the > cluster. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
