> Key: PARQUET-344
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PARQUET-344
> Project: Parquet
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: parquet-mr
> Reporter: Quentin Francois
>
> We use Parquet to store raw metrics data and then query this data with
> Hadoop-Pig.
> The issue is that sometimes we end up with small Parquet files (~80mo) that
> contain more than 300 000 000 rows, usually because of a constant metric
> which results in a very good compression. Too good. As a result we have a
> very few number of maps that process up to 10x more rows than the other maps
> and we lose the benefits of the parallelization.
> The fix for that has two components I believe:
> 1. Be able to limit the number of rows per Parquet block (in addition to the
> size limit).
> 2. Be able to limit the number of rows per split.
