[jira] Updated: (HADOOP-6335) Support reading of concatenated gzip and bzip2 files

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6335?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

David Ciemiewicz updated HADOOP-6335:
-------------------------------------

    Summary: Support reading of concatenated gzip and bzip2 files  (was: Support reading of concatenated gzip files)

bzip2 also supports concatenation of individually compressed files.

bzcat has absolutely no problem reading all of the data in a single concatenated file.

Unfortuantely, M/R loses records.  My Hadoop Streaming and Pig jobs saw only 2% of the data in the concatenated file.  That's a 98% data loss.  Not very good.  There should be no data loss in reading these concatenated files.
