Jonathan Coveney commented on PIG-2614:
---------------------------------------
Yeah, some bad data would be key... if the case with avro is that one bad row
throws off the offset, I can deal with that, but it'll help immensely to have
something to test against.
> AvroStorage crashes on LOADING a single bad error

> fields. This is very bad on 'big data,' where bad records are inevitable.
