Thejas M Nair commented on PIG-1524: ------------------------------------ It will be useful to have a measure of number of records being spilled as well as the number of bags that spilled. ie have two counters - 'proactive spill count' and 'proactively spilled record count' . > 'Proactive spill count' is misleading > ------------------------------------- > > Key: PIG-1524 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-1524 > Project: Pig > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Thejas M Nair > Assignee: Thejas M Nair > Fix For: 0.8.0 > > > InternalCacheBag, InternalSortedBag, InternalDistinctBag increment this > counter for every record that it writes to disk, once it exceeds the memory > limit. This number is misleading. > Instead, this counter should be increment it by 1 for each instance of these > bags that has spilled to disk. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
