/** 
 * A map/reduce job configuration.
 * 
 * <p><code>JobConf</code> is the primary interface for a user to describe a 
 * map-reduce job to the Hadoop framework for execution. The framework tries to
 * faithfully execute the job as-is described by <code>JobConf</code>, however:
 * <ol>
 *   <li>
 *   Some configuration parameters might have been marked as 
 *   <a href="{@docRoot}/org/apache/hadoop/conf/Configuration.html#FinalParams">
 *   final</a> by administrators and hence cannot be altered.
 *   </li>
 *   <li>
 *   While some job parameters are straight-forward to set 
 *   (e.g. {@link #setNumReduceTasks(int)}), some parameters interact subtly
 *   with the rest of the framework and/or job-configuration and is relatively
 *   more complex for the user to control finely
 *   (e.g. {@link #setNumMapTasks(int)}).
 *   </li>
 * </ol>
 * 
 * <p><code>JobConf</code> typically specifies the {@link Mapper}, combiner 
 * (if any), {@link Partitioner}, {@link Reducer}, {@link InputFormat} and 
 * {@link OutputFormat} implementations to be used etc.
 *
 * <p>Optionally <code>JobConf</code> is used to specify other advanced facets 
 * of the job such as <code>Comparator</code>s to be used, files to be put in  
 * the {@link DistributedCache}, whether or not intermediate and/or job outputs 
 * are to be compressed (and how), debugability via user-provided scripts 
 * ( {@link #setMapDebugScript(String)}/{@link #setReduceDebugScript(String)}),
 * for doing post-processing on task logs, task's stdout, stderr, syslog. 
 * and etc.</p>
 * 
 * <p>Here is an example on how to configure a job via <code>JobConf</code>:</p>
 * <p><blockquote><pre>
 *     // Create a new JobConf
 *     JobConf job = new JobConf(new Configuration(), MyJob.class);
 *     
 *     // Specify various job-specific parameters     
 *     job.setJobName("myjob");
 *     
 *     FileInputFormat.setInputPaths(job, new Path("in"));
 *     FileOutputFormat.setOutputPath(job, new Path("out"));
 *     
 *     job.setMapperClass(MyJob.MyMapper.class);
 *     job.setCombinerClass(MyJob.MyReducer.class);
 *     job.setReducerClass(MyJob.MyReducer.class);
 *     
 *     job.setInputFormat(SequenceFileInputFormat.class);
 *     job.setOutputFormat(SequenceFileOutputFormat.class);
 * </pre></blockquote>

   * 
   * <b id="NoOfMaps">How many maps?</b>
   * 
   * <p>The number of maps is usually driven by the total size of the inputs 
   * i.e. total number of blocks of the input files.</p>
   *  
   * <p>The right level of parallelism for maps seems to be around 10-100 maps 
   * per-node, although it has been set up to 300 or so for very cpu-light map 
   * tasks. Task setup takes awhile, so it is best if the maps take at least a 
   * minute to execute.</p>
   * 
   * <p>The default behavior of file-based {@link InputFormat}s is to split the 
   * input into <i>logical</i> {@link InputSplit}s based on the total size, in 
   * bytes, of input files. However, the {@link FileSystem} blocksize of the 
   * input files is treated as an upper bound for input splits. A lower bound 
   * on the split size can be set via 
   * <a href="{@docRoot}/../mapred-default.html#mapreduce.input.fileinputformat.split.minsize">
   * mapreduce.input.fileinputformat.split.minsize</a>.</p>
   *  
   * <p>Thus, if you expect 10TB of input data and have a blocksize of 128MB,
