Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-2774:
--------------------------------------
Is this proportional to the number of comparisons made or the number of disk
reads? I.e., do you ignore in-memory sorting?
> Add counters to show number of key/values that have been sorted and merged in
> the maps and reduces

> For each *pass* of the sort and merge, I would like a count of the number of
> records. So for example, if the map output 100 records and they were sorted
> once, the counter would be 100. If it spilled twice and was merged together,
> it would be 200. Clearly in a multi-level merge, it may not be a multiple of
> the number of map output records. This would let the users easily see if they
> have values like io.sort.mb or io.sort.factor set too low.
