-----------------------------------
Summary: Add an append method to IFile which does not check for RLE
Key: TEZ-1275
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TEZ-1275
Project: Apache Tez
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Siddharth Seth
The RLE and same key checks are primarily required for sorted output.
For the unordered case - these checks should not be hit (and will almost always
return false).
I believe longer term, the plan is to have only a single method - which does
not have the checks, and move all the key comparison and equality logic over to
users of IFile - which would end up calling appendKV on new keys, and
append(V/List<V>) for repeated values.
