Joseph Adler commented on PIG-3015:
-----------------------------------
I just took at look at PIG-2614. It looks like the PIG-2614 patch will be
compatible with this patch; PIG-2614 simply counts errors as values are read
from a LoadFunc. Am I missing something? I'd be happy to drop the option to
ignore bad records; I think that would make the options for this function
cleaner and easier to understand.

> The current AvroStorage implementation has a lot of issues: it requires old
> versions of Avro, it copies data much more than needed, and it's verbose and
> complicated. (One pet peeve of mine is that old versions of Avro don't
> support Snappy compression.)
> I rewrote AvroStorage from scratch to fix these issues. In early tests, the
> new implementation is significantly faster, and the code is a lot simpler.
> Rewriting AvroStorage also enabled me to implement support for Trevni.
> I'm opening this ticket to facilitate discussion while I figure out the best
> way to contribute the changes back to Apache.
