> In one of my testing that when I set mapreduce.task.io.sort.factor to 1, all 
> the maps hang and will never end. But the CPU usage for each node are very 
> high and until killed by the app master when time out comes, and the job 
> failed. 
> I traced the problem and found out that all the maps hangs on the final merge 
> phase.
> The while loop in computeBytesInMerges will never end with a factor of 1:
> int f = 1; //in my case
> int n = 16; //in my case
> while (n > f || considerFinalMerge) {
>   ...
>   n -= (f-1);
>   f = factor;
> }
> As the f-1 will equals 0 and n will always be 16 and the while runs for ever.
