[jira] [Updated] (PIG-483) PERFORMANCE: different strategies for large and small order bys

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-483?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Jie Li updated PIG-483:
-----------------------

    Attachment: PIG-483.0.patch

Attached a patch that introduced SkipJob. The output of order-by on small dataset would look like:

Job Stats (time in seconds):
JobId	Alias	Feature	Outputs
job_local_0001	a	MAP_ONLY	
job_local_0002	b	ORDER_BY	file:/tmp/temp-107984693/tmp2050404975,
skipped_job	b	SAMPLER	

Input(s):
Successfully read records from: "file:///Users/JieLi/git/pig-git/1.txt"

Output(s):
Successfully stored records in: "file:/tmp/temp-107984693/tmp2050404975"

Job DAG:
job_local_0001	->	skipped_job,
skipped_job	->	job_local_0002,
job_local_0002

> Currently pig always does a multi-pass order by where it first determines a distribution for the keys and then orders in a second pass.  This avoids the necessity of having a single reducer.  However, in cases where the data is small enough to fit into a single reducer, this is inefficient.  For small data sets it would be good to realize the small size of the set and do the order by in a single pass with a single reducer.
