Amar Kamat updated HADOOP-1965:
-------------------------------

    Attachment: 1965_single_proc_150mb_gziped.pdf

I am attaching the results of having a threaded spill [ with two 
DataOutputBuffer (each is half the size of io.sort.mb) and a separate thread 
for sorting and spilling ] as compared to a sequential spill [ as done now ] 
provided that the data is non-splittable and should be consumed by a single map 
task.  The setup is as follows
* Data source: Random text using random-text-writer
* Key size : 10 words
* Data size : ~150mb
* Input type : Gzip
* DFS-block-size : 200mb
* # nodes : 1
* Job type : wordcount
* io.sort.mb : {5,15,25,50,75,100,125}

Results : See the attachment 1965_single_proc_150mb_gziped.pdf

comments ? 
Kindly let me know if a text format of the comparison is required.

> Today, the map task stops calling the map method while sort/spill is using 
> the (single instance of) map output buffer. One improvement that can be done 
> to improve performance of the map task is to have another buffer for writing 
> the map outputs to, while sort/spill is using the first buffer.
