Jonathan Coveney commented on PIG-2632:
---------------------------------------
One last note: implementing getfield(String) would be trivial at this point.
The only reason I haven't done so yet is because right now there is a debate
about how strict we should be w.r.t. Schema -> SchemaTuple (ie should
"a:int,b:int" really generate a different class than "x:int,y:int"? maybe!),
but it would be very easy to add.
But I'm open to suggestions about using another route.
> Create a SchemaTuple which generates efficient Tuples via code gen

> This work builds on Dmitriy's PrimitiveTuple work. The idea is that, knowing
> the Schema on the frontend, we can code generate Tuples which can be used for
> fun and profit. In rudimentary tests, the memory efficiency is 2-4x better,
> and it's ~15% smaller serialized (heavily heavily depends on the data,
> though). Need to do get/set tests, but assuming that it's on par (or even
> faster) than Tuple, the memory gain is huge.
> Need to clean up the code and add tests.
> Right now, it generates a SchemaTuple for every inputSchema and outputSchema
> given to UDF's. The next step is to make a SchemaBag, where I think the
> serialization savings will be really huge.
