Vinod K V commented on MAPREDUCE-967:
-------------------------------------

Your argument w.r.t the classpath (points 1 and 3) sounds reasonable. The newly 
added documentation also mitigates some of my previous issues. Still, I think 
that with the default value for the configuration property as {{(lib|classes)}} 
and not (.*), we need to mark this as incompatible and the release note should 
clearly reflect the breakage of the streaming like use-cases(your 2nd point 
above) and the available work-around(the configuration property) as to how to 
get everything unjarred.

Given that, the patch looks good to me. +1, pending commit of HADOOP-6346.

> In practice we have seen some users submitting job jars that consist of 
> 10,000+ classes. Unpacking these jars into mapred.local.dir and then cleaning 
> up after them has a significant cost (both in wall clock and in unnecessary 
> heavy disk utilization). This cost can be easily avoided
