> Hadoop assumes that if the input data is compressed, it can not be split
> (mainly due to the limitation of many codecs that they need the whole input
> stream to decompress successfully). So in such a case, Hadoop prepares only
> one split per compressed file, where the lower split limit is at 0 while the
> upper limit is the end of the file. The consequence of this decision is
> that, one compress file goes to a single mapper. Although it circumvents the
> limitation of codecs (as mentioned above) but reduces the parallelism
> substantially, as it was possible otherwise in case of splitting.
> BZip2 is a compression / De-Compression algorithm which does compression on
> blocks of data and later these compressed blocks can be decompressed
> independent of each other. This is indeed an opportunity that instead of one
> BZip2 compressed file going to one mapper, we can process chunks of file in
> parallel. The correctness criteria of such a processing is that for a bzip2
> compressed file, each compressed block should be processed by only one mapper
> and ultimately all the blocks of the file should be processed. (By
> processing we mean the actual utilization of that un-compressed data (coming
> out of the codecs) in a mapper).
> We are writing the code to implement this suggested functionality. Although
> we have used bzip2 as an example, but we have tried to extend Hadoop's
> compression interfaces so that any other codecs with the same capability as
> that of bzip2, could easily use the splitting support. The details of these
> changes will be posted when we submit the code.
