Harsh J commented on MAPREDUCE-4710:
------------------------------------
Cindy,
Thanks! This would come useful.
The branch-1 is a maintenance branch that should not receive new features first
and diverge from trunk. Please also provide a trunk patch that can go in first,
so we maintain feature parity. Or if trunk does not require this, please
explain.
> Add peak memory usage counter for each task
> -------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MAPREDUCE-4710
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-4710
> Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: task
> Affects Versions: 1.0.2
> Reporter: Cindy Li
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: patch
> Attachments: mapreduce-4710.patch
>
>
> Each task has counters PHYSICAL_MEMORY_BYTES and VIRTUAL_MEMORY_BYTES, which
> are snapshots of memory usage of that task. They are not sufficient for users
> to understand peak memory usage by that task, e.g. in order to diagnose task
> failures, tune job parameters or change application design. This new feature
> will add two more counters for each task: PHYSICAL_MEMORY_BYTES_MAX and
> VIRTUAL_MEMORY_BYTES_MAX.
