Doug Cutting commented on MAPREDUCE-801:
----------------------------------------

> I'd like to see us discard anything beyond the first 5 options in the JT [ 
> ... ]

Truncating is probably fine.  The original proposal was to "discard location 
information completely".


> MAPREDUCE framework should issue warning with too many locations for a split

> Customized input-format may be buggy and report misleading locations through 
> input-split, an example of which is PIG-878. When an input split returns too 
> many locations, it would not only artificially inflate the percentage of data 
> local or rack local maps, but also force scheduler to use more memory and 
> work harder to conduct task assignment.
