Namit Jain commented on HIVE-1349: ---------------------------------- Can you add the description of the new parameter: hive.exec.counters.pull.interval: in hive-default.xml ? > Do not pull counters of non initialized jobs > -------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-1349 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1349 > Project: Hadoop Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Dmytro Molkov > Attachments: HIVE-1349.patch > > > Right now hive client puts a lot of pressure on the jobtracker by pulling the > counters of the job that has just been submitted and is in the process of > initializing tasks. > While the job initialized tasks and reads the splits file it is holding the > JobInProgress lock. The getCounters method acquires a JobTracker lock and > waits for the JobInProgress lock. Since the read of the file can take a > couple (a couple of tens of seconds) the job tracker is effectively blocked > for that period of time. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
