Hi Nan probably the map stage will output 10% of the total input, and the reduce stage will output 40% of intermediate results (10% of total input).
For example, 500GB input, after the map stage, it will be 50GB and it will become 20GB after the reduce stage. It may be similar to the loadgen in hadoop test example. Anyone has suggestion?
