Hi, Thanks for the response. There was some issues with my code. I have checked that in detail. All the values of map are present in reducer but not in sorted order. This case happens if the number of values are too large for a key.

There isn't any limit like that. Can you reproduce this consistently? If so, please file a ticket. It will definitely help if you can provide a test case which can reproduce this issue.

I am having a issue with my map reduce code. While debugging I found that the reducer can take 262145 values for a particular key. If more values are there, they seem to be corrupted. I checked the values while emitting from map and again checked in reducer. I am wondering is there any such kind of limitation in the Hadoop or is it a configuration problem.
