Writing the UDF was simple enough. How do I contribute the code back to Pig?

Another question - I often find that the command 'illustrate' runs into more
heap space issues than a brute-force dump command. Isn't that contrary to
the goal of the Illustrate command - that it should pick a smaller data-set,
use lesser memory/cpu and finish faster?
