hbase lso question

[Igor Ranitovic <ir...@gmail.com>]

Has anybody had experience upgrading to the patched version of the 
native connector library  by twitter:
http://github.com/kevinweil/hadoop-lzo
http://www.cloudera.com/blog/2009/11/hadoop-at-twitter-part-1-splittable-lzo-compression/

We want to add the splittable lzo support for our MR jobs, however we 
have been running HBase for awhile with the original native connector 
library (http://code.google.com/p/hadoop-gpl-compression/).

I am a bit concern about backward compatibility of the patched version 
and wanted to check if people had any experience with it.

Thanks,
i.
