[jira] Updated: (MAPREDUCE-1906) Lower minimum heartbeat interval for tasktracker > Jobtracker

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-1906?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Todd Lipcon updated MAPREDUCE-1906:

This is Scott's patch but also makes the minimum interval configurable. I set the default to 300ms as Scott suggests.

> I get a 0% to 15% performance increase for smaller clusters by making the heartbeat throttle stop penalizing clusters with less than 300 nodes.
> Between 0.19 and 0.20, the default minimum heartbeat interval increased from 2s to 3s.   If a JobTracker is throttled at 100 heartbeats / sec for large clusters, why should a cluster with 10 nodes be throttled to 3.3 heartbeats per second?
