> PIG-3743 implements union using VertexGroup. But there are a couple of
> optimizations that we can apply to it.
> * Union followed by store
> Union is a blocking operator meaning that a new vertex is added for its
> succeeding operators. But if there is only one store in the succeeding
> vertex, MROutput could be directly attached to VertexGroup instead of adding
> a new vertex for it. Then, each union source vertex will write directly to
> the destination, and therefore, it will be faster.
> * Replace POLocalRearrangeTez with POValueOutputTez
> Union uses POLocalRearrange by setting the whole record as key. But since
> union only needs to partition records evenly across tasks, it might make more
> sense to use POValueOutputTez with RR partitioner instead.
