Tsuyoshi Ozawa commented on TEZ-2606:
-------------------------------------

[~gopalv] Thank you for the clarification. I think my suggestion has been 
already implemented by using TezBytesComparator. Can we have TezIntComparator 
or TezTextComparator for accelerating MapReduce jobs? 

Additionally, I think we can implement SIMD-based bitonic merge sorting by 
using the prefix. I'd like to continue to work on TEZ-2607, but do you have any 
concern about it?

> Alphasort[1]  mentions prefix key sort is effective way. I'd like to suggest
