My cluster admin noticed that there is some additional pipes package he could add to the cluster configuration, but he admits to knowing very little about how the C++ pipes component of Hadoop works.

What exactly does it do that makes a cluster capable of running pipes programs (and what symptom should its absence present from a user's point of view)?
