[jira] Commented: (HADOOP-5784) The length of the heartbeat cycle should be configurable.

Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-5784:
----------------------------------------

is the goal here to detect failures of data nodes, or to have an up to date track of which task trackers have capacity?

> Currently, the hearbeat cycle is set to (# nodes / 100) in seconds. This can be too long for clusters that need to run low latency jobs. We should make the number of heartbeats that should arrive a second configurable.
