I think I figured it out. In case anyone else is having a similar
problem one way to do it would be to implement your own MapRunnable and
open one reader for each MapRunnable.

I am trying to read a MapFile inside mapper and reducer

opening a new reader for each map and reduce call. Is anybody doing
something similar and if so is there a way to open a single reader and
reuse it across multiple map or reduce calls?
