>
> CombineFileInputFormat currently walks through all available nodes and
> generates multiple (maxSplitsPerNode) splits on a single node before
> attempting to generate splits on subsequent nodes. This ends up reducing the
> possibility of generating splits for subsequent nodes - since these blocks
> will no longer be available for subsequent nodes. Allowing splits to go 1
> block above the max-split-size makes this worse.
> Allocating a single split per node in one iteration, should help increase the
> distribution of splits across nodes - so the subsequent nodes will have more
> blocks to choose from.
