----------------------------------
@Todd
I don't think this patch can speed up terasort. This method is not a bottleneck of a MR job.
Random seeks during the shuffle stage should be the bottle bottleneck.
This patch helps reducing CPU consuming, which i think can also be ragarded as an improvement.
> Introduce a buffered checksum for avoiding frequently calls on Checksum.update()

> We found that PureJavaCRC32/CRC32.update() is the TOP 1 of the methods consuming CPU
in a map side, and in reduce side, it cost a lots of CPU too.
> IFileOutputStream would frequently call Checksum.update() during writing a record. It's
very common a MR key/value less than 512 bytes. Checksum.update() would be called every time
writing a key/value.
> Test case: terasort 100MB.
> Checksum.update() calls has be reduced from 4030348 to 28069. This method is not a hotspot
anymore.
