what does your mapred-site.xml file say?

I've used wordcount and had close to 12 reduces running on a 6
datanode cluster on a 3 GB file.


I have a configuration in there which says:
mapred.reduce.tasks = 12

The reason I chose 12 was because it was recommended that I choose 2x
number of tasktrackers.
