Harish Jaiprakash commented on TEZ-3673:
----------------------------------------

I did this because if we are going to use region size as buffer limit and when 
remaining memory > 50% of buffer limit then anyways the entire region will be 
allocated (if successful) so might as well use it.

> Allocate smaller buffers in UnorderedPartitionedKVWriter

> UnorderedPartitionedKVWriter allocates in bigger chunks. It may or may not 
> get filled up. In PipelinedSorter, we start off with 32MB chunks. But 
> UnorderedPartitionedKVWriter can be worse as it allocates bigger blocks. Need 
> to revisit this allocation.
