Devaraj Das commented on HADOOP-2774:
-------------------------------------
Yes Chris, that's a very valid point on the JVM reuse. I completely overlooked
that. So the basic idea of having counters in the IFile.Reader and IFile.Writer
and not touching the IFile format remains. But I'd like to avoid polluting the
IFile class with formal Counters if possible.
> Add counters to show number of key/values that have been sorted and merged in

> For each *pass* of the sort and merge, I would like a count of the number of
> records. So for example, if the map output 100 records and they were sorted
> once, the counter would be 100. If it spilled twice and was merged together,
> it would be 200. Clearly in a multi-level merge, it may not be a multiple of
> the number of map output records. This would let the users easily see if they
> have values like io.sort.mb or io.sort.factor set too low.
