Alejandro Abdelnur commented on HADOOP-3315:
--------------------------------------------
I would like to see something like Andrzej is mentioning, the metadata section
at the end.
Our use case is specifically the example hi mentions, the record count.
Currently keep the count in a shadow file, ie _NAME.counter, using a custom
SequenceOutputFormat. The problem with this approach is that we are doubling
the number of files in HDFS for SequenceFiles.

> SequenceFile's block compression format is too complex and requires 4 codecs
> to compress or decompress. It would be good to have a file format that only
