bq. I'm marking this JIRA as won't fix. We can consider re-opening it if you
propose a compelling use case
> Create hard and soft limits for job counters

> Key: MAPREDUCE-3779
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-3779
> Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: jobtracker, tasktracker
> Affects Versions: 0.23.0, 1.0.0
> Reporter: Dave Shine
> Priority: Minor
>
> The mapreduce.job.counters.limit is not overridable at the job level. While
> it is necessary to limit the number of counters to reduce overhead, there are
> times when exceeding the limit is required. Currently, the only solution is
> to increase the limit cluster wide.
> I would like to see a soft limit set in the mapred-site.xml that can be
> overridden at the job level, in addition to the hard limit that exists today.
