Part files on the output filesystem are created irrespective of whether the 
corresponding task has anything to write there

                 Key: HADOOP-4927
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4927
             Project: Hadoop Core
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Devaraj Das
             Fix For: 0.20.0


When OutputFormat.getRecordWriter is invoked, a part file is created on the 
output filesystem. But the created RecordWriter is not used until the 
OutputCollector.collect call is made by the task (user's code). This results in 
empty part files even if the OutputCollector.collect is never invoked by the 
corresponding tasks.
