> The array, in JobInProgress, that holds the references to TIPs is required now only to serve the clients (web UI via JSPs and JobClient APIs, that traverse the array and create the output). The array can now be removed since HADOOP-2119 introduces some datastructures for running/non-running TIPs and we could probably add some more if required (e.g., for completed TIPs). That way, we will gain when we have large jobs (many tasks) in the sense that we don't have to go through the big array every time a client request is made. We could instead iterate over the datastructures. Also, we should do these traversals without locking the JobTracker to avoid cases where long traversal leads to loss of heartbeats, etc. Some staleness at the client side (in favor of improving the JobTracker's performance) is probably okay.
