Owen O'Malley updated HADOOP-3226:
----------------------------------
Description:
When merging spills from the map, running the combiner should further diminish
the volume of data we send to the reduce.
was:When merging spills from the map, running the combiner should further
diminish the volume of data we send to the reduce.
Release Note:
Previously, the combiner was run exactly once on each record by the map task.
Now, the combiner may be run multiple times as the map's output is sorted and
merged. Additionally, it may be run on the reduce side as data is merged.
The old semantics are available in Hadoop 0.18 if the user calls:
job.setCombineOnlyOnce(true);
was:Previously, the combiner was run exactly once on each record by the map
