This would read both the key > and the value bytes. It would be good to have Merger.Segment.nextRawKey(), > that would read only the key and delay reading the value until needed (in > Merger.MergeQueue.next()) via a new method Merger.Segment.nextRawValue(). > This would mean that we load only one value bytes at a time, and hence would > incur potentially much less (depending on how big the values are) on the > memory footprint. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
