> The bzip2 codec supplied with Hadoop is currently available only as a Java
> implementation. A version that uses the system bzip2 library can provide
> improved performance and a better memory footprint. This will also make it
> feasible to utilize alternative bzip2 libraries that may perform better for
> specific jobs.
