Alejandro Abdelnur commented on HADOOP-3702:
--------------------------------------------

Thanks for the feedback.

*On "each stage in the pipeline having its own configuration .. put them into 
the outer configuration":*

The use case is that mappers/reducer in the chain (I'm not using 'pipe' to 
avoid confusion as it has other use in Hadoop) are not aware of each other, and 
that they are in a chain, and they may have collision in the configuration keys 
they use. 

*On "If you are going to do that, ... make Configuration Writable and use the 
writable stringifier?":*

That was my initial idea but it would have required changes in the 
Configuration and I was avoiding any change in the core.

I'll make this change.

*On "use {{hadoop.io.Data{In,Out}putBuffer}} ...":*

I'll look at it.

*On "You should probably convert the task id string to a TaskAttemptID ...":*

OK

*On "preferred sytle is Sun's":*

OK

> On the same input, we usually need to run multiple Maps one after the other 
> without no Reduce. We also have to run multiple Maps after the Reduce.
> If all pre-Reduce Maps are chained together and run as a single Map a 
> significant amount of Disk I/O will be avoided. 
> Similarly all post-Reduce Maps can be chained together and run in the Reduce 
> phase after the Reduce.
