Description

GIRAPH-43 noted that the counter limits introduced in Hadoop 203 may limit Giraph's ability to track superstep information, and collide with users' counters as well. We should note in the documentation that with these versions of Hadoop the limit (mapreduce.job.counters.max in .23 and mapreduce.job.counters.limit in .203) should be increased.
