[jira] [Updated] (HADOOP-1381) The distance between sync blocks in SequenceFiles should be configurable rather than hard coded to 2000 bytes

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-1381?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Owen O'Malley updated HADOOP-1381:
----------------------------------

    Status: Open  (was: Patch Available)

The comment is wrong. You've changed the default to 20 * 100k or 2MB. Actually, I'd prefer a smaller default of 0.5 to 1 MB. In any case, the comments should match the code. 

Thanks for getting back to this one.

> Currently SequenceFiles put in sync blocks every 2000 bytes. It would be much better if it was configurable with a much higher default (1mb or so?).
