Chris Nauroth commented on HADOOP-12990:
----------------------------------------

Is this actually expected to work?  Hadoop logic puts some framing around raw 
LZ4 so that the data is a sequence of length-prefixed compressed chunks.  I 
don't know the internals of the Linux lz4 tool, but unless it matches that 
framing strategy exactly (which I wouldn't expect it to), then I don't expect 
this would work.

I know this is true of Snappy.  There are various Snappy CLIs out there, and 
they don't work well with our Snappy codec, because they don't implement the 
same framing.

Of course, it would be nice if there was a more graceful failure mode than 
trying to do a huge allocation and hitting {{OutOfMemoryError}}.
