Adam Kramer commented on MAPREDUCE-1750:
----------------------------------------

Sorry for being unclear. Yes, this is for streaming. I agree that that is a 
good first step.

And yes, I meant the number of values, not the number of keys. Thanks!

> Make #rows avail. to reducers as environment variable

> Given that there is a sort phase between the copy phase and the reduce phase, 
> it seems like there is a chance for counting during sort.
> It would be nice if my reducers could have access to an environment variable, 
> say, mapred.reduce.rows, that contained the number of rows present for this 
> reducer (as counted during the sort step).
