Rahul Sharma commented on CRUNCH-23:
------------------------------------

Gabriel, I check the patch for avro files. It does not work. My bad, should have verified it earlier. Also while fixing it I am getting stuck at a point. In the end the TotalOrdePartioner requires a SequenceFile. How can I make one using the keys from Avro data? Still trying out a few options e.g. configuring AvroSequenceFileOutputFormat.

> When a PCollection is sorted (using PCollection#sort), the sorting that is performed is only per reducer, and not an absolute sort over all values. This means that the values are not in sorted order if they are iterated over on a materialized collection. It also means that the sorted files that are output from a sort operation can not be simply concatenated to come to a single sorted file.
