Sharad Agarwal commented on HADOOP-3973:
----------------------------------------
On second thoughts, the exception approach won't work with the pipes/streaming
applications. To support this functionality for pipes/streaming as well,
Reporter.setStatus() would be the way to go.

> Occasionally a mapper/reducer is done without need to see more input data. If
> we provide a way to break out and skip reading the rest of input then job
> finishs earlier and resources are spared.
