Joydeep Sen Sarma commented on MAPREDUCE-1901:
----------------------------------------------

it's _almost_ in production :-) - the patch posted here had some bugs. we have 
final patch for 20 available - but have been trying to get the one for trunk 
into shape. should post soon.

try running hadoop in debug log4j mode. u would get a trace of all those jars 
being uploaded to hdfs. it's ridiculous.

> Jobs should not submit the same jar files over and over again

> Currently each Hadoop job uploads the required resources 
> (jars/files/archives) to a new location in HDFS. Map-reduce nodes involved in 
> executing this job would then download these resources into local disk.
> In an environment where most of the users are using a standard set of jars 
> and files (because they are using a framework like Hive/Pig) - the same jars 
> keep getting uploaded and downloaded repeatedly. The overhead of this 
> protocol (primarily in terms of end-user latency) is significant when:
> - the jobs are small (and conversantly - large in number)
> - Namenode is under load (meaning hdfs latencies are high and made worse, in 
> part, by this protocol)
> Hadoop should provide a way for jobs in a cooperative environment to not 
> submit the same files over and again. Identifying and caching execution 
> resources by a content signature (md5/sha) would be a good alternative to 
> have available.
