>
> When a reducer is fetching multiple compressed map outputs from a host, the
> fetcher can get out-of-sync with the IFileInputStream, causing several of the
> maps to fail to fetch.
> This occurs because decompressors can return all the decompressed bytes
> before actually processing all the bytes in the compressed stream (due to
> checksums or other trailing data that we ignore). In the unfortunate case
> where these extra bytes cross an io.file.buffer.size boundary, some extra
> bytes will be left over and the next map_output will not fetch correctly
> (usually due to an invalid map_id).
> This scenario is not typically fatal to a job because the failure is charged
> to the map_output immediately following the "bad" one and the subsequent
> retry will normally work.
