> If a map finishes with out having to spill its data buffer, the map outputs 
> are sorted and written to disk. However, no care is taken to make sure that 
> the same partition is used to write it out before it is renamed. On nodes 
> with multiple disks assigned to the task trackers, this will likely cause an 
> addition read/write cycle to disk that is very expensive.
