It seems like the InMemoryFileSystem class has been deprecated in Hadoop
0.19.1. Why?

I want to reuse the result of reduce as the next time map's input. Cascading
does not work, because the data of each step is dependent. I set each
timestep mapreduce job as synchronization. If the InMemoryFileSystem is
deprecated. How can I reduce the I/O for each timestep's mapreduce job.
