Optimization question

[Vincent Barat]

Hi,

I wonder if it is faster to firstly extract only the interesting 
fiels from a bag of tuples before performing other operations on it, 
or if it is automatically handled by the optimizer:

For exemple, is:

ssessions = FOREACH sessions GENERATE imei;
imei_sessions = GROUP ssessions BY imei;
imei_session_count = FOREACH imei_sessions GENERATE group, 
COUNT(ssessions);

faster than:

imei_sessions = GROUP sessions BY imei;
imei_session_count = FOREACH imei_sessions GENERATE group, 
COUNT(sessions);

Thanks for your help
