>
> Currently, the hadoop processes gzipped files with only one map.
> We have made a patch that enables multiple map tasks for one large gzipped file. We call the patch RAgzip.
> To process multiple map tasks for gzipped file, you may use RAgzip by just changing InputFormat to RAGZIPInputFormat.
> The option used in RAGZIPInputFormat can be found at the javadoc of RAGZIPInputFormat part.
> RAgzip uses zlib's inflatePrime function which supports random access on a gzipped file. 
> Since the inflatePrime is supported from the version of 1.2.2.4, it requires zlib 1.2.2.4 or higher. (We tested on zlib 1.2.3)
> RAgzip requires the preprocessing step that creates an access point (.ap) file, which is like the index of the gzipped file chunks. 
> The access point(.ap) file is located in same path of the gzipped file.
> If there is a "/user/hadoop/test.gz", the .ap file is created with "/user/hadoop/test.gz.ap".
