Namit Jain commented on HIVE-1585:
----------------------------------

<property>
  <name>hive.merge.size.per.task</name>
  <value>256000000</value>
  <description>Size of merged files at the end of the job</description>
</property>

<property>
  <name>hive.merge.size.smallfiles.avgsize</name>
  <value>16000000</value>
  <description>When the average output file size of a job is less than this 
number, Hive will start an additional map-reduce job to merge the output files 
into bigger files.  This is only done for map-only jobs if hive.merge.mapfiles 
is true, and for map-reduce jobs if hive.merge.mapredfiles is 
true.</description>
</property>

Don't the above parameters meet your criteria ?

> Currently if hive.merge.[mapfiles|mapredfiles] is true and the merged output 
> file size is determined by the input split size which is determined by 
> mapred.min.split.size, mapred.min.split.size.per.[node|rack] and 
> mapred.max.split.size. Sometimes it is desirable to have different output 
> file size than the input split size.
