Veena Basavaraj commented on SQOOP-1938:
----------------------------------------
[~hshreedharan] one more question. If we have the reduce phase, by setting the
numLoader > 0, will we not loose this E-L parallelism ? since the reduce step
can start only after map step is done
> DOC:update the sqoop MR engine implementation details

> 1. Why we need SqoopWritable, what can be done in future?
> 2. Even though we call sqoop as a map only, is that how it always works? what
> happend when numLoaders is non zero
> {code}
> // Set number of reducers as number of configured loaders or suppress
> // reduce phase entirely if loaders are not set at all.
> if(request.getLoaders() != null) {
> job.setNumReduceTasks(request.getLoaders());
> } else {
> job.setNumReduceTasks(0);
> }
> {code}
> 3. Internals of SqoopNullOutputFormat and how SqoopWritable is used in it
