Summary: improvement Key: HADOOP-12855 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-12855 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Bug Components: Add option to disable JVMPauseMonitor across services Affects Versions: 2.8.0 Environment: JVMs with miniHDFS and miniYarn clusters Reporter: Steve Loughran Now that the YARN and HDFS services automatically start a JVM pause monitor, if you start up the mini HDFS and YARN clusters, with history server, you are spinning off 5 + threads, all looking for JVM pauses, all printing things out when it happens. We do not need these monitors in minicluster testing; they merely add load and noise to tests. Rather than retrofit new options everywhere, how about having a "jvm.pause.monitor.enabled" flag (default true), which, when set, starts off the monitor thread. That way, the existing code is unchanged, there is always a JVM pause monitor for the various services —it just isn't spinning up threads. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
