Senthil Subramanian updated HADOOP-1441: ---------------------------------------- Status: Open (was: Patch Available) > Splittability of input should be controllable by application > ------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HADOOP-1441 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1441 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: mapred > Affects Versions: 0.12.3 > Environment: ALL > Reporter: Milind Bhandarkar > Assignee: Milind Bhandarkar > Fix For: 0.14.0 > > > Currently, isSplittable method of FileInputFormat always returns true. For > some applications, it becomes necessary that the map task process entire > file, rather than a block. Therefore, splittability of input (i.e. > block-level split vs file-level-split) should be controllable by user via a > configuration variable. The default could be block-level split, as is. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
