Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-1381:
--------------------------------------
> reduce the overhead by a factor of 500
But if the overhead is already considerably less than 1%, is this really
important? We want to keep it substantially smaller than 1% of what we ever
expect the FileSystem block size to be. 1MB seems to be pushing that boundary.
> The distance between sync blocks in SequenceFiles should be configurable
> rather than hard coded to 2000 bytes

> better if it was configurable with a much higher default (1mb or so?).
