Dmitriy V. Ryaboy commented on PIG-1249: ---------------------------------------- This is a good spot to leverage pinning options that were added to operators a while back. The parser would pin the parallel option if it encounters the PARALLEL keyword, and the code in this patch wouldn't get invoked unless parallelism is not pinned. > Safe-guards against misconfigured Pig scripts without PARALLEL keyword > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: PIG-1249 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-1249 > Project: Pig > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 0.8.0 > Reporter: Arun C Murthy > Assignee: Jeff Zhang > Priority: Critical > Fix For: 0.8.0 > > Attachments: PIG-1249.patch > > > It would be *very* useful for Pig to have safe-guards against naive scripts > which process a *lot* of data without the use of PARALLEL keyword. > We've seen a fair number of instances where naive users process huge > data-sets (>10TB) with badly mis-configured #reduces e.g. 1 reduce. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
