[jira] Issue Comment Edited: (HADOOP-4981) Prior code fix in Capacity Scheduler prevents speculative execution in jobs

[edit - correct issue]
TestQueueCapacities is failing in 0.20. When HADOOP-5792 is reverted, this causes TestQueueCapacities to fail in trunk.

> As part of the code fix for HADOOP-4035, the Capacity Scheduler obtains a task from JobInProgress (calling obtainNewMapTask() or obtainNewReduceTask()) only if the number of pending tasks for a job is greater than zero (see the if-block in TaskSchedulingMgr.getTaskFromJob()). So, if a job has no pending tasks and only has running tasks, it will never be given a slot, and will never have a chance to run a speculative task.
