Sriranjan Manjunath commented on PIG-792:
-----------------------------------------

I have fixed the issue with a nullpointerexception when schema was specified as 
part of load. It was a bug in rewire of LOJoin. The current patch is the latest 
one and has no known issues.

> Fragmented replicated join has a few limitations:
>  - One of the tables needs to be loaded into memory
>  - Join is limited to two tables
> Skewed join partitions the table and joins the records in the reduce phase. 
> It computes a histogram of the key space to account for skewing in the input 
> records. Further, it adjusts the number of reducers depending on the key 
> distribution.
> We need to implement the skewed join in pig.
