mapred.min.split.size and mapred.job.tracker=local

[Kenneth Berland <ke...@hero.com>]

Hello,

I'm able to run a Nutch job on a single-node in a pseudo-distributed mode 
where each Hadoop daemon runs in a separate Java process.  I have to set 
mapred.min.split.size to a large number.  If mapred.min.split.size is too 
small, the local disk fills after a large number of maps and the job is 
never completed.

My problem is when I try to set mapred.min.split.size when running in 
non-distributed mode, as a single Java process.  It appears to be ignored.

Is this the expected behavior?

Thanks,
Ken
