> If nested foreach plan contains sort/distinct, it is possible to use hadoop
> secondary sort instead of SortedDataBag and DistinctDataBag to optimize the
> query.
> Eg1:
> A = load 'mydata';
> B = group A by $0;
> C = foreach B {
> D = order A by $1;
> generate group, D;
> }
> store C into 'myresult';
> We can specify a secondary sort on A.$1, and drop "order A by $1".
> Eg2:
> A = load 'mydata';
> B = group A by $0;
> C = foreach B {
> D = A.$1;
> E = distinct D;
> generate group, E;
> }
> store C into 'myresult';
> We can specify a secondary sort key on A.$1, and simplify "D=A.$1; E=distinct
> D" to a special version of distinct, which does not do the sorting.
