praveen sripati commented on HAMA-540:
--------------------------------------

1) It would be good to have the initial (p-1) pivots evenly distributed over 
the input data. This way the processors take almost same time to complete the 
task. How are you planning to get them?

In the TeraSort#readPartitions looks like the first reducer # of lines are read 
from the input data. Not an efficient way.

http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/hadoop/common/trunk/hadoop-mapreduce-project/hadoop-mapreduce-examples/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/examples/terasort/TeraSort.java

2) Slightly less than double the size of the input data is passed between the 
processors in the sampling sort. If the input is 1TB, then ~2TB is transferred 
between the nodes. Not sure if this is OK? It would be nice to know how much 
data is transferred in merge sort and quick sort.

I am just getting a feel of Hama/BSP and thought of implementing sampling sort. 
Please do it. I will pick the next easy one :)

> For HAMA-535 we need some kind of sort framework, for various other tasks 
> this could be as well practical.
