> If a reducer encounters an error trying to fetch from a node then encounters
> a read timeout when trying to re-establish the connection then the reducer
> can fail. The read timeout exception can leak to the top of the Fetcher
> thread which will cause the reduce task to teardown. This type of error can
> repeat across reducer attempts causing jobs to fail due to a single bad node.
