> HADOOP-5879 patch aimed at picking the conf (instead of default) settings for GzipCodec. It also involved re-initializing the recycled compressor object. 
> On our performance tests, this re-initialization led to performance degradation of 15% for LzoCodec because re-initialization for Lzo involves reallocation of buffers. LzoCodec takes the initial settings from config so it is not necessary to re-initialize it. This patch checks for the codec class and calls reinit only if the codec class is Gzip. This led to significant performance improvement of 15% for LzoCodec.
