> Currently WeightedRangePartitioner checks if the input is also empty if the 
> quantile file is empty. For this it tries to read the input (which under the 
> covers will result in creating splits for the input etc). If the input is a 
> directory with many files, this could result in many calls to the namenode 
> from each task - this can be avoided.
> If the input is non empty and quantile file is empty, then we would error out 
> anyway (this should be confirmed). Also while fixing this jira we should 
> ensure that pig can still do order by on empty input.
