> In Python 2.x, most of the string are bytearray, it's more efficient then unicode (both cpu and memory).
> UTF-8 is the default encoding.
> After disable decode from utf8 into unicode in UTF8Deserializer, the total time for wc job is reduce by 32% (from 2m17s to 1m34s).
> We also could add argument unicode=False to textFile().
