[SPARK-19563][SQL] advoid unnecessary sort in FileFormatWriter ## What changes were proposed in this pull request? In `FileFormatWriter`, we will sort the input rows by partition columns and bucket id and sort columns, if we want to write data out partitioned or bucketed. However, if the data is already sorted, we will sort it again, which is unnecssary. This PR removes the sorting logic in `FileFormatWriter` and use `SortExec` instead. We will not add `SortExec` if the data is already sorted. ## How was this patch tested? I did a micro benchmark manually ``` val df = spark.range(10000000).select($"id", $"id" % 10 as "part").sort("part") spark.time(df.write.partitionBy("part").parquet("/tmp/test")) ``` The result was about 6.4 seconds before this PR, and is 5.7 seconds afterwards. close https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/16724 You can merge this pull request into a Git repository by running: $ git pull https://github.com/cloud-fan/spark writer Alternatively you can review and apply these changes as the patch at: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/16898.patch To close this pull request, make a commit to your master/trunk branch with (at least) the following in the commit message: This closes #16898 ---- commit 602a1e48f2ca0c8286601a35c40b0e0f23331f23 Author: Wenchen Fan <wenc...@databricks.com> Date: 2017-02-12T09:01:53Z advoid unnecessary sort in FileFormatWriter ---- --- If your project is set up for it, you can reply to this email and have your reply appear on GitHub as well.
