Bikas Saha commented on TEZ-1993:
---------------------------------
Right. I now recall observing similar issues when I was trying to add a wait
for locality attribute to the split.
The patch looks good.
Question: What would be the issue if the FileSplit (lets say ORCSplit) actually
provided logical length of the split instead of the file length in the
getLength() method. Theoretically that would not be wrong.
> Implement a pluggable InputSizeEstimator for grouping fairly

> Project: Apache Tez

> Affects Versions: 0.7.0
> Reporter: Gopal V

> Attachments: TEZ-1993.1.patch, TEZ-1993.2.patch

>
> Split grouping is currently done using a file size measurement which is the
> exact size of the split as it stays at rest on HDFS.
> This is not valid for columnar formats and especially suffers from highly
> compressible data skews.
