> There are currently two types of task history pruning running by aurora:
> # The implicit task history pruning running by TaskHistoryPrunner in the background, which registers all inactive tasks upon terminal state change for pruning.
> # The explicit task history pruning initiated by `aurora_admin prune_tasks` command, which prunes inactive tasks in the cluster.
> The prune_tasks endpoint seems to be very slow when the cluster has a large number of inactive tasks. 
> For example, when we use $ aurora_admin prune_tasks for 135k running tasks (1k jobs), it takes about ~30 minutes to prune all tasks, the pruning speed seems to max out at 3k tasks per minute.
> Currently, aurora uses StreamManager to manages a single log stream append transaction for task history pruning. Local storage ops can be added to the transaction and then later committed as an atomic unit. However, the StateManager removes tasks one by one in a for-loop(https://github.com/apache/aurora/blob/master/src/main/java/org/apache/aurora/scheduler/state/StateManagerImpl.java#L376), and each RemoveTasks operation is coalesced with its previous operation, which seems inefficient and unnecessary (https://github.com/apache/aurora/blob/c85bffdd6f68312261697eee868d57069adda434/src/main/java/org/apache/aurora/scheduler/storage/log/StreamManagerImpl.java#L324).
> We need to batch all removeTasks operations and execute them all at once to avoid additional cost of coalescing. The fix will also benefit implicit task history pruning since it has similar underlying implementation.
