> Key: MAPREDUCE-1213

> Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
> Issue Type: Bug

> Attachments: MAPREDUCE-1213.1.patch, MAPREDUCE-1213.2.patch,

>
> We are seeing that when we restart a tasktracker, it tries to recursively
> delete all the file in the distributed cache. It invoked
> FileUtil.fullyDelete() which is very very slow. This means that the
> TaskTracker cannot join the cluster for an extended period of time (upto 2
> hours for us). The problem is acute if the number of files in a distributed
> cache is a few-thousands.
