Siddharth Seth commented on MAPREDUCE-3902:
-------------------------------------------
You're right. There's a lot of patches which will need to go in. Creating some
of the sub-tasks that will be required before this can be considered for a
merge back to trunk. I believe this will take several more weeks.
MAPREDUCE-4502 doesn't necessarily need to be blocked on this - if that's
something you're waiting to work on.
> MR AM should reuse containers for map tasks, there-by allowing fine-grained
> control on num-maps for users without need for CombineFileInputFormat etc.

> The MR AM is now in a great position to reuse containers across (map) tasks.
> This is something similar to JVM re-use we had in 0.20.x, but in a
> significantly better manner:
> # Consider data-locality when re-using containers
> # Consider the new shuffle - ensure that reduces fetch output of the whole
> container at once (i.e. all maps) : MAPREDUCE-4525
