This is called to report progress. In this case the input file for the map is a Lucene index whose documents we iterate through. To simplify the construction of input splits (without opening each index) a constant length is used for each file. So we have to scale the document numbers to give progress in this range. The problem is that progress may be reported even when there are no documents in the index. So the call is valid and no exception should be thrown. Doug
