----------------------------------------------------
Not sure we can do anything else if we want to be compatible in this sense.
Removing the ping thread completely from the framework is one option, but may
be later.
> Hung Tasks never time out.

> The AM will timeout a task through mapreduce.task.timeout only when it does
> not hear from the task within the given timeframe. On 1.0 a task must be
> making progress, either by reading input from HDFS, writing output to HDFS,
> writing to a log, or calling a special method to inform it that it is still
> making progress.
> This is because on 0.23 a status update which happens every 3 seconds is
> counted as progress.
