[jira] Updated: (HADOOP-2393) TaskTracker locks up removing job files within a synchronized method

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2393?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Amareshwari Sriramadasu updated HADOOP-2393:
--------------------------------------------

    Attachment: patch-2393.txt

Here is patch adding a daemon thread to the tasktracker delete files that are queued up. TaskTracker queues up all the file deletions to this new thread. This should remove the io operations in purgeJob().

> we have some bad jobs where the reduces are getting stalled (for unknown reason). The task tracker kills these processes from time to time.
> Everytime one of these events happens - other (healthy) map tasks in the same node are also killed. Looking at the logs and code up to 0.14.3 - it seems like the child tasks pings to the task tracker are timed out and the child task self-terminates.

> i don't see an option to turn off stack trace dump (which could be a likely cause) - and i would hate to bump up timeout because of this. Crap.
