Milind Bhandarkar commented on PIG-856: --------------------------------------- +1 to Sathosh to documenting Knobs. Better to add and document knobs rather than modify language like this: {code} %TempReplicate 2 store A into PigStorage('\t') with replication 2; {code} > PERFORMANCE: reduce number of replicas > -------------------------------------- > > Key: PIG-856 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-856 > Project: Pig > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 0.3.0 > Reporter: Olga Natkovich > > Currently Pig uses the default number of replicas between MR jobs. Currently, > the number is 3. Given the temp nature of the data, we should never need more > than 2 and should explicitely set it to improve performance and to be nicer > to the name node. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
