Amar Kamat updated MAPREDUCE-1316:
----------------------------------
Release Note: JobTracker holds stale references to TaskInProgress objects
and hence indirectly holds reference to retired jobs resulting into memory
leak. Only task-attempts which are yet to report their status are left behind
in the memory. All the task-attempts are now removed from the JobTracker by
iterating over the scheduled task-attempt ids instead of iterating over
available task statuses.
> JobTracker holds stale references to retired jobs via unreported tasks

> JobTracker fails to remove _unreported_ tasks' mapping from _taskToTIPMap_ if
> the job finishes and retires. _Unreported tasks_ refers to tasks that were
> scheduled but the tasktracker did not report back with the task status. In
> such cases a stale reference is held to TaskInProgress (and thus
> JobInProgress) long after the job is gone leading to memory leak.
