[jira] [Commented] (MAPREDUCE-3902) MR AM should reuse containers for map tasks, there-by allowing fine-grained control on num-maps for users without need for CombineFileInputFormat etc.

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-3902?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13428211#comment-13428211 ] 

Tsuyoshi OZAWA commented on MAPREDUCE-3902:
-------------------------------------------

IMHO, the 2nd topic(combining per container) should be moved, because the change seems to be too big.
If there are no counter opinion, I'm going to create new ticket to deal with the 2nd topic as a sub-task of MAPREDUCe-3902.

> The MR AM is now in a great position to reuse containers across (map) tasks. This is something similar to JVM re-use we had in 0.20.x, but in a significantly better manner:
> # Consider data-locality when re-using containers
> # Consider the new shuffle - ensure that reduces fetch output of the whole container at once (i.e. all maps)
