-------------------------------------

So from my understanding this will only be existed when bypassing to hash style shuffle path?

> A Spark user was asking for automatic setting of # reducers. When I pushed for more, it turned out the problem for them is that 200 creates too many files, when most partitions are empty.
> It seems like a simple thing we can do is to avoid creating shuffle files if a partition is empty.
