Xuefu Zhang commented on PIG-1714:
----------------------------------
All nightly unit test passes. Verified the fix on a real cluster and it fixes
the problem as expected.
> Option mapred.output.compress doesn't work in Pig 0.8 but worked in 0.7

> Command line options -Dmapred.output.compress and
> -Dmapred.output.compression.codec worked in Pig 0.7, which, when set, would
> compress the output, whether or not the output has an extension .gz, .bz, or
> .bz2. This behavior changed in 0.8 in that compression is on only if the
> output has such extensions. In other words, the command line options have no
> effect.
> Pig needs to clarify the right way to enable/disable compression and
> implement it accordingly.
> The behavior change is probably related to PIg-1533.
