> Wrong reduce task progress if map output is compressed

> If the map output is compressed (_mapreduce.map.output.compress_ set to
> _true_) then the reduce task progress may be highly underestimated.
> In the reduce phase (but also in the merge phase), the progress of a reduce
> task is computed as the ratio between the number of processed bytes and the
> number of total bytes. But:
> - the number of total bytes is computed by summing up the uncompressed
> segment sizes (_Merger.Segment.getRawDataLength()_)
> - the number of processed bytes is computed by exploiting the position of the
> current _IFile.Reader_ (using _IFile.Reader.getPosition()_) but this may
> refer to the position in the underlying on disk file (which may be compressed)
> Thus, if the map outputs are compressed then the progress may be
> underestimated (e.g., only 1 map output ondisk file, the compressed file is
> 25% of its original size, then the reduce task progress during the reduce
> phase will range between 0 and 0.25 and then artificially jump to 1.0).
> Attached there is a patch: the number of processed bytes is now computed by
> exploiting _IFile.Reader.bytesRead_ (if the the reader is in memory, then
> _getPosition()_ already returns exactly this field).
