Doug Daniels resolved PIG-2524.
-------------------------------
Resolution: Duplicate
> LIMIT is not effective when reducers are estimated higher than 1
> ----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: PIG-2524
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-2524
> Project: Pig
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 0.9.2
> Reporter: Doug Daniels
>
> If the user does not provide a default # of reducers on the operation or the
> script, pig estimates the number of reducers based on the input data size.
> If that estimate yields > 1 reducer, then LIMIT operators can produce more
> results than they are supposed to.
> This happens b/c the reducer estimation code
> (JobControlCompiler.estimateNumberOfReducers) runs after the LimitAdjuster
> code (MRCompiler.compile). So, if the reducer estimation uses > 1 reducer,
> then the LimitAdjuster will not have added an extra 1-reducer MR job to
> enforce the proper limit.
> This seems related to PIG-2295.
