Chris K Wensel commented on HBASE-1605: --------------------------------------- Nope, doesn't look like it. I'm not calling for a configurable number of mappers/splits. But asking the total number of rows returned across all splits be exactly equal to an optional 'limit' value. And pointing out the current impl, as I see it in trunk, sets the splits to the number of regions in a table thus implying that a single global Filter across all splits won't work as limit may not be evenly divided among the splits. It will be nice to specify the number of mappers/splits and have it honored though. > TableInputFormat should support 'limit' > --------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-1605 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-1605 > Project: Hadoop HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: mapred > Reporter: Chris K Wensel > > Would be useful if TableInputFormat could be passed a 'limit' property value > that limited the total result set to the value of 'limit'. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
