Hi,
I'm setting my combiner and reducer to the same java class. Is there any
API that could tell me the context in which the java class is running after
the hadoop job is submitted to the cluster i.e whether the class is running
as a combiner or a reducer. I need this information to change the

I agree that the behaviour shouldn't be dynamically changed at runtime with
regard to the class being use as a Combiner or a Reducer but someone may

(sanity check). But you really would like to be able to not aggregate the
