Need to document when combiner is used
--------------------------------------

                 Key: PIG-1790
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-1790
             Project: Pig
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: documentation
            Reporter: Olga Natkovich
            Assignee: Olga Natkovich
             Fix For: 0.9.0


I serached through the documentation but could not find a section that 
describes the cases under which combiner is used. Since combiner has such a 
significant impact on query performance, I think it is important to add this 
information. Also, with 0.9 we are expending combiner usage so having 
documentation would be useful for that as well.

Here are the JIRAs for combiner use slated for 0.9:

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-750
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-490
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-946
