> There appears to be a race condition in the MR App Master in relation to preempting reducers to let a mapper run.  In the particular case that I have been debugging a reducer was selected for preemption that did not have a container assigned to it yet. When the container became available that reduce started running and the previous TA_KILL event appears to have been ignored.
