> Building on the pluggability in SPARK-2044, a sort-based shuffle 
> implementation that takes advantage of an Ordering for keys (or just sorts by 
> hashcode for keys that don't have it) would likely improve performance and 
> memory usage in very large shuffles. Our current hash-based shuffle needs an 
> open file for each reduce task, which can fill up a lot of memory for 
> compression buffers and cause inefficient IO. This would avoid both of those 
> issues.
