> MapStatus uses hardcoded value of 2000 partitions to determine if it should
> use highly compressed map status. We should make it configurable to allow
> users to more easily tune their jobs with respect to this without having for
> them to modify their code to change the number of partitions. Note we can
> leave this as an internal/undocumented config for now until we have more
> advise for the users on how to set this config.
> Some of my reasoning:
> The config gives you a way to easily change something without the user having
> to change code, redeploy jar, and then run again. You can simply change the
> config and rerun. It also allows for easier experimentation. Changing the #
> of partitions has other side affects, whether good or bad is situation
> dependent. It can be worse are you could be increasing # of output files when
> you don't want to be, affects the # of tasks needs and thus executors to run
> in parallel, etc.
> There have been various talks about this number at spark summits where people
> have told customers to increase it to be 2001 partitions. Note if you just do
> a search for spark 2000 partitions you will fine various things all talking
> about this number. This shows that people are modifying their code to take
> this into account so it seems to me having this configurable would be better.
> Once we have more advice for users we could expose this and document
> information on it.
