Assignee: Marian Dvorsky
> Switch AvroIO sink default codec to Snappy
> ------------------------------------------
>
> Key: BEAM-3874
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-3874
> Project: Beam
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: io-java-avro
> Reporter: Marian Dvorsky
> Assignee: Marian Dvorsky
> Priority: Minor
> Time Spent: 0.5h
> Remaining Estimate: 0h
>
> AvroIO currently uses CodecFactory.deflateCodec(6) as the default codec for
> writes.
> That compresses well, but is quite expensive.
> Snappy codec offers sparser, but much faster compression, and is typically a
> better CPU/storage tradeoff except for very long lived files.
> We should consider switching the default to Snappy.
