Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-2736:
--------------------------------------

TestSetFile tests random access.  The unit test creates a SetFile containing 
10,000 RandomDatum instances, then seeks to sqrt(10,000)=100 random entries in 
that file and checks that the expected entry is found.

We could also run it on a MiniDFS cluster, specifying a small block size 
(~32kb?) to test random access on HDFS.

We might also specify block compression for a run, to better test seeks within 
a block-compressed SequenceFile.
