Task continues to get localized even though it is marked for killing already
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MAPREDUCE-1116
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-1116
Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
Issue Type: Bug
Components: tasktracker
Reporter: Vinod K V
Even after the task is marked for killing, because TT doesn't explicitly check
for the task state at various stages like downloading job jar, job conf and
distributed cache files, it continues to localize the task. This is waste of
resources and time and in some cases affects other tasks. Particularly it
continues to download distributed cache files and aggravates issues like
MAPREDUCE-1098.
