Jean-Daniel Cryans commented on HBASE-940:
------------------------------------------

Unfortunately object creation may become a real problem in a big cluster with many writes if this patch is applied. 
If TableReduce was not an interface, it would have been a good place to put this copy stuff since it's only useful for MR.
On the other hand, doing it in commit prevents weird situations where a user would have reused the same BatchUpdates over 
and over and only the latest update would have been applied... many times.

> Make the TableOutputFormat batching-aware

> With HBASE-748, we can batch updates but the auto-flushing is enabled by 
> default. Make it that it is disabled for MR jobs outputting in a table and 
> make sure that everything is sent in the end.
