>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 0.5
>            Reporter: Mat Kelcey
>            Assignee: Sean Owen
>            Priority: Minor

>
> The first pass of the collocations discovery job (as described by 
> CollocDriver.generateCollocations) uses the 
> org.apache.mahout.vectorizer.collocations.llr.GramKeyPartitioner partitioner. 
> This partitoner has an instance variable offset that is supposed to be set by 
> a call to setOffsets() but this call is never made (not sure why? is this 
> method expected to be called by the Hadoop framework itself?) 
> The offset not being set results in getPartition always returning 0 and so 
> all intermediate data is sent to the one reducer. 
> I couldn't quite understand what this partitioning was meant to be doing, but 
> simply hashing the Grams primary string representation (ie without the 
> leading 'type' byte) does what is required...
> {code}
> public class GramKeyPartitioner extends Partitioner<GramKey, Gram> {
>   @Override
>   public int getPartition(GramKey key, Gram value, int numPartitions) {
>     // exclude first byte which is the key type 
>     byte[] keyBytesWithoutTypeByte = new byte[key.getPrimaryLength()-1]; 
>     System.arraycopy(key.getBytes(), 1, keyBytesWithoutTypeByte, 0, 
> keyBytesWithoutTypeByte.length); 
>     int hash = WritableComparator.hashBytes(keyBytesWithoutTypeByte, 
> keyBytesWithoutTypeByte.length);
>     return (hash & Integer.MAX_VALUE) % numPartitions;    
>   }
>   
> }
> {code}
