Hong Tang commented on MAPREDUCE-801:
-------------------------------------
I suggest we discard location information completely when the number of
locations reported by an input split is greater than a threshold (e.g. 20).
> MAPREDUCE framework should issue warning with too many locations for a split
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Hong Tang
>
> Customized input-format may be buggy and report misleading locations through
> input-split, an example of which is PIG-878. When an input split returns too
> many locations, it would not only artificially inflate the percentage of data
> local or rack local maps, but also force scheduler to use more memory and
> work harder to conduct task assignment.
