> Most of  time,  the size of tuple is not very large, one byte is enough for 
> store the size of tuple. So I suggest to use VInt instead of Int for the size 
> of tuple when doing Serialization. Because the key type of map output is 
> Tuple, so this can reduce the amount of data transferred from mapper to 
> reducer.
