> TestSplitLogManager.testVanishingTaskZNode fails when run individually (run just that test case from eclipse). I've also noticed that it is flaky on windows. 
> The reason is a rare race condition, which somehow does not happen that much when the whole class is run.
> The sequence of events is smt like this:
>  - we create 1 log file to split
>  - we call splitLogDistributed() in its own thread. 
>  - splitLogDistributed() is waiting in waitForSplittingCompletion() since there are no splitlogworkers, it keep waiting.
>  - we delete the task znode from zk
>  - SplitLogManager receives the zk callback from GetDataAsyncCallback, which will call setDone() and mark the task as success. 
>  - However, meanwhile the waitForSplittingCompletion() loops sees that remainingInZK == 0, and calls return concurrently to the above. 
>  - on return from waitForSplittingCompletion(), splitLogDistributed() fails because the znode delete callback has not completed yet. 
> This race only happens when the last task is deleted from zk, and normally only the SplitLogManager deletes the task znodes after processing it, so I don't think this is a production issue.
