-----------------------------------
+1.
You're right on 2, sorry about that. Forgot that we didn't have to pay the cost
of keeping all of the keys for the left table in memory at the same time.
> Add sharded join functionality

> Performing joins where a large proportion of the values on one or both sides
> of the join are mapped to a single key can result in poor performance, as one
> (or a small number) of reducers end up handling most of the joining work,
> leaving the rest of the cluster idle.
> Sharded joining should be added to allow splitting up join keys, thereby
> distributing values mapped to a single key over multiple reducer partitions.
