Tom White commented on MAPREDUCE-1932:
--------------------------------------

I wonder whether we want to add this to the new API, when we could instead 
suggest that people launch their own subprocess (as Owen suggests here: 
http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/hadoop-common-user/201108.mbox/%3ccafqou9ekv+sbvav-bsf5dorjo68vsj6ztqxywwut+qhs3v3...@mail.gmail.com%3e).

As I understand it, the record skipping feature finds bad records by doing a 
binary search on the record range covered by a given task, so it has to re-run 
the task many times until the size of the window is below a given threshold. 
Also, I'm not sure how it copes with the case of multiple corrupted records in 
a single split.
