Re: Regading Benchmark test for Hadoop

[Josh Patterson <jo...@cloudera.com>]

Hey Sonali,

A good start is Terrasort:

# generate 10m records
hadoop jar $HADOOP_HOME/hadoop-*-examples.jar teragen 10000000 input-dir


# run terasort
hadoop jar $HADOOP_HOME/hadoop-*-examples.jar terasort input-dir output-dir


Which will push your setup some. Its not a complete test, but its a good
first test!
