You should report progress in a period less then configured (in you case
600sec).
Add code like below to you reducer and call ping in you reducer where you
process tuples.

        final TaskAttemptContext context = <init in costructor>;
        long lastTime = System.currentTimeMillis();

        public void ping() {
            final long currtime = System.currentTimeMillis();
            if (currtime - lastTime > 10000) {
                context.progress();
                lastTime = currtime;
            }
        }
