[jira] [Comment Edited] (TEZ-3816) Ability to automatically
speculate single-task vertices
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TEZ-3816?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16122452#comment-16122452 ]

---------------------------------------------------------------
I believe a max of 2 attempts (for a single task) running is handled via the regular flow? So that this does not end up spawning new attempts up to the max limit each time this timeout is exceeded.
May be easier to put all the logic in a single place - LegacySpeculator.maybeScheduleASpeculation, instead of having to change multiple methods on the LegactyRuntimeEstimator class.
Another possible enhancement, at a later point, would be to speculate earlier rather than later, once there is sufficient confidence that the current attempt will miss the timeout, based on progress information available.
ALso, a test would be useful.

> When a single-task vertex is unlucky, it lands on a very slow node. Speculation doesn't currently apply when there are no other tasks to compare with. It would be good to have a configurable timeout after which the tasks automatically speculate.
