Resolution: Invalid
> Make buffer size in PipeMapRed configurable
> -------------------------------------------

> Default value of buffer size is 128K in {{PipeMapRed}}.
> When mapper input record is large enough that it won't fit in buffer,
> {{MapRunner}} blocks until written. If child process and input reader are
> both slow (due to calculation and decompress), then process of decoding and
> reading will rarely overlap with each other, hurting performance.
> I suppose we should make the buffer size configurable.
