My patch shouldn't affect the fs code at all. I have no idea what is failing or why. I have personally tried my patch on a two-node cluster without issue.

> Project: Hadoop
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: mapred
> Affects Versions: 0.13.0
> Reporter: Michael Bieniosek
> Attachments: accelerate-task-log.patch, eliminate-split-idx.patch

> When I start a task and go to the task logs, nothing shows up for a while. An examination of TaskLog.Writer and TaskLog.Reader reveals:
> 1. The TaskLog.Reader relies on the presence of a split.idx to identify the parts of the logs to display.
> 2. The TaskLog.Writer only updates the split.idx file when it moves on to the next log.
> As a result, updates to the log only get pushed when an entire file is done.
> Why is there a split.idx file? It seems that since files are called part-00000, part-00001, etc., the TaskLog.Reader can just look at all files and arrange them by alphabetical order. The split.idx file also contains file length, but this data is already stored by the filesystem.
> If nobody has objections, I'd like to write a patch to eliminate the split.idx file.
