--------------------------------------------------------------

Another proposal: We create /tmp/$user.name/jarcache with 700 and use it as a user level jarcache. Also, every time a jar is used from jar case we do fs.setTimes(jarpath, now, now) to update atime, mtime of the jar (to avoid cleanups).
[~rohini] thoughts?

> Pig currently copies jar files to a temporary location in hdfs and then adds them to DistributedCache for each job launched. This is inefficient in terms of 
>    * Space - The jars are distributed to task trackers for every job taking up lot of local temporary space in tasktrackers.
>    * Performance - The jar distribution impacts the job launch time.
