Evan Pollan commented on MAPREDUCE-177:
---------------------------------------
This defect affects me after just 10-15 iterations of a daily job that has on
the order to 10K mappers and a thousand or so reducers. This is cropping up
using 0.20.2 (from CDH2U3). This seems like a pretty serious problem affecting
the longevity of the job tracker. Is there a reason a fix hasn't been committed
and released?

> When I ran the gridmix 2 benchmark load on a fresh cluster of 500 nodes with
> hadoop trunk,
> the gridmix load, consisting of 202 map/reduce jobs of various sizes,
> completed in 32 minutes.
> Then I ran the same set of the jobs on the same cluster, yhey completed in 43
> minutes.
> When I ran them the third times, it took (almost) forever --- the job tracker
> became non-responsive.
> The job tracker's heap size was set to 2GB.
> The cluster is configured to keep up to 500 jobs in memory.
> The job tracker kept one cpu busy all the time. Look like it was due to GC.
> I believe the release 0.18/0.19 have the similar behavior.
> I believe 0.18 and 0.18 also have the similar behavior.
