    Description

      The current TaskLauncher serially launches new tasks one at a time. During the launch it does the localization and then starts the map/reduce task. This can cause any other tasks to be blocked waiting for the current task to be localized and started. In some instances we have seen a task that has a large file to localize (1.2MB) block another task for about 40 minutes. This particular task being blocked was a cleanup task which caused the job to be delayed finishing for the 40 minutes.
