Vinod K V commented on MAPREDUCE-1184:
--------------------------------------


As such I an neutral to this change. But as I said before, this is 
site-specific, job-specific. And this comment I've made only after seeing 
different opinions on this issue itself.

Allen says in the description "This should be higher, probably around the 50% 
mark".
Hong says 
[here|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-1184?focusedCommentId=12773788&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels%3Acomment-tabpanel#action_12773788]
 "Another case, for tiny jobs that require fast turn around time, it would be 
better if we set the percentage to be 0."

Either there is a cross-talk or I am missing something or these are different 
use-cases already. If we can agree to a default that is agreeable to everyone 
here, I am fine.


> mapred.reduce.slowstart.completed.maps is too high by default

> By default, this value is set to 5%.  I believe for most real world 
> situations the code isn't efficient enough to be set this low.  This should
