Rohini Palaniswamy commented on PIG-3585:
-----------------------------------------

+1. The code is good if we have union after some processing. With this patch a 
simple union takes 3 vertices (2 load and 1 union) instead of 1 vertex. We 
should make it optimal to handle in a single vertex.

bq. Tez doesn't allow multiple inputs for the root vertex. We probably can't 
implement UNION with a single vertex.
   With MR, we just load both inputs as two different PigSplit in 
PigInputFormat. That should be possible here too right?

> Unlike MR, union needs to be implemented as multiple vertices because Tez 
> doesn't allow multiple inputs in root vertex.
> I propose that we implement union by connecting load vertices to union vertex 
> with broadcasting edges.
