Doğacan Güney commented on NUTCH-392:
-------------------------------------

I think it is okay to allow BLOCK compression for linkdb, crawldb, crawl_*, 
content, parse_data. Because I don't think that people will need fast 
random-access on anything but parse_text. 

I agree that we need to test performance impact of BLOCK compression before 
committing such a change. Unfortunately, our  setup doesn't include BLOCK 
compression right now. I will try to test it and report some results once I get 
the chance.

PS: Compressing content will not have significant savings right now since it is 
already compressed internally but once content stops doing that I think there 
will be _huge_ savings there.

> OutputFormat implementations should pass the Progressable they are passed to 
> underlying SequenceFile implementations.  This will keep reduce tasks from 
> timing out when block writes are slow.  This issue depends on 
> http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-636.
