Varun Saxena commented on YARN-3367:
------------------------------------
bq. TestDistributedShell: what is the status of this test on our branch? Is it
still considered "broken" or is it supposed to complete within the timeout?
Its passing locally for me despite several runs.
Are you able to simulate it locally ?

> Since YARN-3039, we add loop in TimelineClient to wait for
> collectorServiceAddress ready before posting any entity. In consumer of
> TimelineClient (like AM), we are starting a new thread for each call to get
> rid of potential deadlock in main thread. This way has at least 3 major
> defects:
> 1. The consumer need some additional code to wrap a thread before calling
> putEntities() in TimelineClient.
> 2. It cost many thread resources which is unnecessary.
> 3. The sequence of events could be out of order because each posting
> operation thread get out of waiting loop randomly.
> We should have something like event loop in TimelineClient side,
> putEntities() only put related entities into a queue of entities and a
> separated thread handle to deliver entities in queue to collector via REST
> call.
