> today even when we do map side aggregates - we do multiple map-reduce jobs. 
> however - the reason for doing multiple map-reduce group-bys (for single 
> group-bys) was the fear of skews. When we are doing map side aggregates - 
> skews should not exist for the most part. There can be two reason for skews:
> - large number of entries for a single grouping set - map side aggregates 
> should take care of this
> - badness in hash function that sends too much stuff to one reducer - we 
> should be able to take care of this by having good hash functions (and prime 
> number reducer counts)
> So i think we should be able to do a single stage map-reduce when doing 
> map-side aggregates.
