-------------------------------------

So do HADOOP-485 and HADOOP-531 solve this issue? If so, then we should mark it duplicate, or at least dependent.


Need to sort on more than the primary key
-----------------------------------------

                Key: HADOOP-531
                URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-531
            Project: Hadoop
         Issue Type: Improvement
         Components: contrib/streaming
   Affects Versions: 0.5.0
           Reporter: Richard Kasperski

There are many tasks where I need to have finer control over the ordering in the reduce than a sort on a single key provides. Most of these situations arise when a merge two sources of data and am attaching a single instance of one source to multiple instances of a second source. I know that I can read all the the records with a single key. It's possible that there might be many millions of these making memory demands that cannot be satisfied.
