Lars George commented on HBASE-2225: ------------------------------------ Trying to test this now and getting {code} java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: SequenceFile doesn't work with GzipCodec without native-hadoop code! at org.apache.hadoop.io.SequenceFile.createWriter(SequenceFile.java:379) at org.apache.hadoop.io.SequenceFile.createWriter(SequenceFile.java:347) at org.apache.hadoop.io.SequenceFile.createWriter(SequenceFile.java:420) at org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.lib.output.SequenceFileOutputFormat.getSequenceWriter(SequenceFileOutputFormat.java:60) at org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.lib.output.SequenceFileOutputFormat.getRecordWriter(SequenceFileOutputFormat.java:71) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapTask$NewDirectOutputCollector.<init>(MapTask.java:509) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapTask.runNewMapper(MapTask.java:619) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapTask.run(MapTask.java:323) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.LocalJobRunner$Job.run(LocalJobRunner.java:257) {code} Is that a change in Hadoop? This used to work before I am sure. Comments? I will look into it. > Enable compression in HBase Export > ---------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-2225 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-2225 > Project: Hadoop HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: util > Affects Versions: 0.20.1 > Environment: OS agnostic > Reporter: Ted Yu > Assignee: Lars George > Priority: Minor > Attachments: HBASE-2225-trunk.patch > > Original Estimate: 0.5h > Remaining Estimate: 0.5h > > org.apache.hadoop.hbase.mapreduce.Export should set compression codec > In createSubmittableJob(), the following should be added: > FileOutputFormat.setCompressOutput(job, true); > FileOutputFormat.setOutputCompressorClass(job, > org.apache.hadoop.io.compress.GzipCodec.class); > From my experiment, 10% to 50% reduction in Export output has been observed. > SequenceFileInputFormat used by the Import tool is able to detect GzipCodec - > there is no change for Import class. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
