Shravan Matthur Narayanamurthy commented on PIG-545:
----------------------------------------------------
It worked with the changes to sort. It produced an even distribution and took
about 3 mins lesser. There is still a slight tuning to be done as the first
partition is not getting enough data. I will try to tweak it a bit and check if
its better than the current one.
> PERFORMANCE: Sampler for order bys does not produce a good distribution

> In running tests on actual data, I've noticed that the final reduce of an
> order by has skewed partitions. Some reduces finish in a few seconds while
> some run for 20 minutes. Getting a better distribution should lead to much
> better performance for order by.
