> Default value of buffer size is 128K in {{PipeMapRed}}.
> When mapper input record is large enough that it won't fit in buffer, 
> {{MapRunner}} blocks until written. If child process and input reader are 
> both slow (due to calculation and decompress), then process of decoding and 
> reading will rarely overlap with each other, hurting performance.
> I suppose we should make the buffer size configurable.
