Has the table been compacted since loading the data? Hi Russ, I believe that the AccumuloInputFormat will use the splits on the table you're reading to generate the MR InputSplits. The InputFormat should be trying to run the Mappers on the same machine as the tserver serving the data is located.
If you're only getting a few mappers, adding more splits to your table should help. As your job runs, you can verify locality using the counters that your Job creates using the JobTracker/ResourceManger web UI.
