Alan Gates commented on PIG-480:
--------------------------------

So this code definitely wins in some instances and looses in others.  I propose 
that we do include the functionality, but that we define a property that will 
turn it off (something like -Dpig.exec.noidentitymap or something) and clearly 
document the case where users would want to turn it off.

Thoughts?

> For jobs with two or more MR jobs, use identity mapper wherever possible in 
> second and subsequent MR jobs. Identity mapper is about 50% than pig empty 
> map job because it doesn't parse the data.
