> 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.
