Streaming FAQ has some wrong instructions about input files splitting
---------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MAPREDUCE-3991
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-3991
             Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: documentation
    Affects Versions: 0.23.0
            Reporter: Harsh J
            Assignee: Harsh J
            Priority: Trivial


Steaming docs say, at: http://hadoop.apache.org/common/docs/current/streaming.html#How+do+I+process+files%2C+one+per+map%3F

"Generate a file containing the full HDFS path of the input files. Each map task would get one file name as input."

This is incorrect, as a file isn't split by lines, rather by size - for MR.
