Currently, the compression has to be specified and takes no default value. This is to ask user to take full appreciation of pros and cons of either compression method. > need to investigate the impact of compression on pig performance > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: PIG-1501 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-1501 > Project: Pig > Issue Type: Test > Reporter: Olga Natkovich > Assignee: Yan Zhou > Fix For: 0.8.0 > > Attachments: compress_perf_data.txt, compress_perf_data_2.txt, > PIG-1501.patch, PIG-1501.patch, PIG-1501.patch > > > We would like to understand how compressing map results as well as well as > reducer output in a chain of MR jobs impacts performance.
