Rohini Palaniswamy commented on PIG-2672:
-----------------------------------------
Have used all versions of hadoop from 0.20, 0.20S to 23. Have never seen it
unjarred till now. Verified by checking the cache directory of production task
trackers of both 0.20.205 and 0.23. They are not unjarred and we are certainly
using "tmpjars".
But looking at the code in TrackerDistributedCacheManager, I am wondering why
it did not unjar. The code definitely seems to be unjarring. Confused and need
to dig deeper.

>
> Pig currently copies jar files to a temporary location in hdfs and then adds
> them to DistributedCache for each job launched. This is inefficient in terms
> of
> * Space - The jars are distributed to task trackers for every job taking
> up lot of local temporary space in tasktrackers.
> * Performance - The jar distribution impacts the job launch time.
