> Streaming jobs are way slower than Java jobs for many reasons, but certainly stopping the shell-only programmer from using the combiner feature won't help. Right now, the streaming usage says:
> {quote}
>   -mapper   <cmd|JavaClassName>      The streaming command to run
>   -combiner <JavaClassName> Combiner has to be a Java class
>   -reducer  <cmd|JavaClassName>      The streaming command to run
> {quote}
