Aniket Mokashi commented on PIG-3346:
-------------------------------------
I haven't taken a closer look but I feel that this patch will ensure
numPigSplits < pig.maxCombinedSplitNum. However, this doesn't ensure number of
files processed by one mapper < pig.maxCombinedSplitNum. (what if underlying
InputFormat combines files in one inputsplit?)
> New property that controls the number of combined splits

> Currently, the size of combined splits can be configured by the
> {{pig.maxCombinedSplitSize}} property.
> Although this works fine most of time, it can lead to a undesired situation
> where a single mapper ends up loading a lot of combined splits. Particularly,
> this is bad if Pig uploads them from S3.
> So it will be useful if the max number of combined splits can be configured
> via a property something like {{pig.maxCombinedSplitNum}}.
