                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-8

          Components: impl

Currently, each data type in Pig has compareTo function as the means to compare 
objects during maps side sort. This is very inefficient since 2 objects need to 
be created for each comparison. Using binary comparison should speed things up 
significantly(2-3x) for most queries.
