Johan Oskarsson updated HADOOP-4640:
------------------------------------
Attachment: HADOOP-4640.patch
Have added unit test for the LzoIndex issue, seems the other test still worked
since the splits just got shifted one block. Corrected the method to work as
described now.

> Right now any file compressed with lzop will be processed by one mapper. This
> is a shame since the lzo algorithm would be very suitable for large log files
> and similar common hadoop data sets. The compression rate is not the best out
> there but the decompression speed is amazing. Since lzo writes compressed
> data in blocks it would be possible to make an input format that can split
> the files.
