Mark,
Is the structure of both files the same? It makes even more sense to
combine the files, if you can, as I have seen a considerable speed up
when I've done that (at least when I've had small files to deal with).

Hey, quick question:
I'm writing a program that parses data from 2 different files and puts the data
into a table. Currently I have 2 different map functions and so I submit 2
separate jobs to the job client. Would it be more efficient to add both paths
to the same mapper and only submit one job? Thanks a lot!
