> I'm running into similar issues like http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22462665/is-hadoops-toorunner-thread-safe, the author's observation seem to make sense to me. However when I checked the hadoop github trunk I found the issue still not fixed.
> Chris Nauroth further investigated this issue, here's his quote: 
> {quote}
> The root cause is that commons-cli OptionBuilder is not thread-safe.
> https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-cli/apidocs/org/apache/commons/cl
> i/OptionBuilder.html
> According to this issue, commons-cli doesn't plan to change that and
> instead chose to document the lack of thread-safety.
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLI-209
> I think we can solve this in Hadoop, probably with a one-line change to
> make GenericOptionsParser#buildGeneralOptions a synchronized method.

> I'll soon upload a patch for this
