> On a pseudo-distributed test run, I'm seeing truncated mapper output.  I don't see this when running the same job on a real cluster managed with hadoop-ec2.
> With a no-reducers streaming job, I'm getting several output files, each truncated to 325.24 KB, and several zero-length output files.  With "cat" as my reducer, I get one output file, again truncated to 325.24 KB.  This only happens in a pseudo-distributed Hadoop run - when I run the mapper on the command line (cat input_file | ./mapper.py | sort), I get the full output.  Input splitting isn't a factor, my input file is small enough to fit in one input split (and truncated input would just break the mapper, not truncate its output).
> My mapper is outputting the default key-value lines for streaming, with a tab separating the key and the value, and no newlines or tabs in the value.
> Truncation happens in the middle of a line.  My lines are very long, the lines themselves are over 325.24 KB.  This isn't the most efficient use of Hadoop, I know, I'm just putting a job in my pipeline while I work on a better implementation.
