>
> If two files are concatenated, we need to read each record in these files and
> write them back to the destination file. The IO cost is mostly unavoidable
> due to the lack of append functionality in HDFS. However the CPU cost could
> be significantly reduced by avoiding compression and decompression of the
> files.
> The File Format layer should provide API that implement the block-level
> concatenation.
