Siddharth Seth commented on MAPREDUCE-3512:
-------------------------------------------

Had run some crude benchmarks - writing out about 40MB of data (iirc). With a 
flush after every 0.5KB - this took roughly 35 seconds. With one flush at the 
end - around 6 seconds. Flush every 500KB - about 12 seconds.

Also, a benchmark like AMScalability (100K map tasks) currently takes over 5 
minutes after job complete to finish the history file.

> The mr-am flushes each individual job history event to disk for AM recovery. 
> The history even handler ends up with a significant backlog for tests like 
> MAPREDUCE-3402. 
> History events could be batched up based on num records / time / 
> TaskFinishedEvents to reduce the number of DFS writes - with the potential 
> drawback of having to rerun some tasks during AM recovery.
