Jim Donofrio commented on ACCUMULO-391:
---------------------------------------

I am still learning about Accumulo but would there be any advantage to the inputformat offering the option to combine multiple tablets across tables into a given split if they are on the same tablet server in the case that some mappers complete their queries very quickly? This would be similar to the CombineFileInputFormat over hdfs files

> Just realized we had no MR input method which supports multiple Tables for an input format. I would see it making the table the mapper's key and making the Key/Value a tuple, or alternatively have the Table/Key be the key tuple and stick with Values being the value.
