Alan Gates resolved PIG-209.
----------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

At this point Pig is relying on storage formats such as Zebra to do indexing.  We have no near term plans to provide indexing inside Pig itself.

> Computing the inner join of a very large table (i.e., bag or mapping) with a smaller table can take time proportional to the size of the very large table. This time required can be greatly reduced if the very large table is indexed, taking time proportional to the size of the smaller table. It should be possible for clients to index tables for use by future joins.
