> JobTracker.getJobCounter() will lock JobTracker and call
> JobInProgress.getCounters().
> JobInProgress.getCounters() can be very expensive because it aggregates all
> the task counters.
> We found that from the JobTracker jstacks that this method is one of the
> bottleneck of the JobTracker performance.
> JobInProgress.getCounters() should be able to be called out side the
> JobTracker lock because it already has JobInProgress lock.
> For example, it is used by jobdetails.jsp without a JobTracker lock.
