Luke Lu commented on MAPREDUCE-2125:
------------------------------------

bq. I think adding one getJobCounter() for the entire lifecycle of a job should 
be allowed. If this is not doable, why should we need this method 
getJobCounter()?

The problem is that many of the intermediate jobs don't need the additional 
getJobCounter call. If you put it in the default instrumentation class, it 
becomes mandatory additional expensive call for every job. I'd be more 
comfortable if you provide a way to turn it off, preferably by default.

> We have lots of useful information in the framework counters including 
> #spills, filesystem read and write.
> It will be nice to put them all in the jobtracker metrics to get a global 
> view of all these numbers.
