[jira] Updated: (MAPREDUCE-1316) JobTracker holds stale references to retired jobs via unreported tasks

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-1316?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Amar Kamat updated MAPREDUCE-1316:
----------------------------------

    Description: JobTracker fails to remove _unreported_ tasks' mapping from _taskToTIPMap_ if the job finishes and retires. _Unreported tasks_ refers to tasks that were scheduled but the tasktracker did not report back with the task status. In such cases a stale reference is held to TaskInProgress (and thus JobInProgress) long after the job is gone leading to memory leak.  (was: JobTracker fails to remove speculative tasks' mapping from _taskToTIPMap_ if the job finishes and retires before the tracker (running the speculative tasks) reports back. In such cases a stale reference is held to TaskInProgress (and thus JobInProgress) long after the job is gone leading to memory leak.)
        Summary: JobTracker holds stale references to retired jobs via unreported tasks   (was: JobTracker holds stale references to retired jobs via speculated tips )
