Chris Douglas updated MAPREDUCE-4469: ------------------------------------- Status: Open (was: Patch Available) branch-1 is not getting new fixes, but it looks like {{ProcfsBasedProcessTree}} in trunk could benefit from this same set of optimizations. I'll leave the issue open, in case someone has the time and inclination to rebase it. > Resource calculation in child tasks is CPU-heavy > ------------------------------------------------ > > Key: MAPREDUCE-4469 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-4469 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Bug > Components: performance, task > Affects Versions: 1.0.3 > Reporter: Todd Lipcon > Assignee: Ahmed Radwan > Labels: BB2015-05-TBR > Attachments: MAPREDUCE-4469.patch, MAPREDUCE-4469_rev2.patch, > MAPREDUCE-4469_rev3.patch, MAPREDUCE-4469_rev4.patch, > MAPREDUCE-4469_rev5.patch > > > In doing some benchmarking on a hadoop-1 derived codebase, I noticed that > each of the child tasks was doing a ton of syscalls. Upon stracing, I noticed > that it's spending a lot of time looping through all the files in /proc to > calculate resource usage. > As a test, I added a flag to disable use of the ResourceCalculatorPlugin > within the tasks. On a CPU-bound 500G-sort workload, this improved total job > runtime by about 10% (map slot-seconds by 14%, reduce slot seconds by 8%) -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
