>             Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 2.6.0, 2.5.2

> In UniformSizeInputFormat it is trying to get equal amount of bytes to every split. But the logic today will result in every split having a little less then the perfect amount and that left over from every split will be put into the last split.
> Resulting in a large skew for the last split.
> Below if the area of the code that is affected:
> https://github.com/apache/hadoop/blob/9ae7f9eb7baeb244e1b95aabc93ad8124870b9a9/hadoop-tools/hadoop-distcp/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/tools/mapred/UniformSizeInputFormat.java#L98
> The fix would be to change the following line:
> currentSplitSize += srcFileStatus.getLen();
> to
> currentSplitSize += srcFileStatus.getLen() + (currentSplitSize - nBytesPerSplit);
