Yes for editing i use eclipse in the same fashion. If i want to try out a job and see how it performs on hadoop I need job compiled fast.
On another note. I think there will be a lot of dead code in the job(with all the jar files bundles) Is there an optimiser for that i.e to remove classes which mahout never use indirectly I see loading jar takes 10-20 seconds when initializing mapper or reducer. It doesnt affect long running jobs but 20 sec overhead for processing 64MB chunk sucks On Fri, Feb 5, 2010 at 10:19 PM, Ted Dunning <ted.dunn...@gmail.com> wrote: > I usually do an initial compilation using mvn package.
