I forgot to ask about this... we already have the entries stored as
key,value pairs, so we expect the data to be already in the cache. That
means there is no ordering in the inputs, and the mapper can't rely on
sequential inputs to be related. Would you consider that to be a reasonable
expectation?
Yes, I have not encounter an algorithm in M/R that assumes such
relations during the map phase.
