Yes, parameter is mapred.task.timeout in mS.
You can also update status / output to stdout after some time chunks to avoid 
this :)

Now I see. The tasks are failing with the following error message :

*Task attempt_201001272359_0001_r_000000_0 failed to report status for 600
seconds. Killing!*

Looks like hadoop kills/restarts  jobs which takes more than 600 seconds. Is
there any way I can increase it to some very high number  ?

-Thanks,
