Incidentally, I have most of the basics of a "MapReduce-Lite" which I aim to port to use the exact Hadoop API since I am *only* working on 10's-100's GB of data and find that it is running really fine on my laptop and I don't need the distributed failover. My goal for that
If it's going to be API-compatible with regular Hadoop, then I'm sure many people will find it useful. E.g. many Nutch users bemoan the complexity of distributed Hadoop setup, and they are not satisfied with the "local" single-threaded physical-copy execution mode.
