Tom White commented on HADOOP-1986:
-----------------------------------

Mukund - Thanks for running the benchmarks.

Owen - I'm uncomfortable with the apparent overhead too. So I'm going to run 
some local benchmarks to see if I can see where it's coming from.

> Currently Map Reduce programs have to use WritableComparable-Writable 
> key-value pairs. While it's possible to write Writable wrappers for other 
> serialization frameworks (such as Thrift), this is not very convenient: it 
> would be nicer to be able to use arbitrary types directly, without explicit 
> wrapping and unwrapping.
