| As you have seen, the combiners are not efficient when using the Perl API. This is a problem of Perl API -- reading and writing the (key, value) pairs is relatively slow and a combiner does not help -- it in fact increases the number of (key, value) pairs that need to be read/written. | |

| | For comparison, here are times of Java solutions: |

| | | Wordcount without combiner | 2mins, 26sec | 367MB | |
| | | Wordcount with combiner | 1min, 51sec | 51MB | |
| | | Wordcount with hash in mapper | 1min, 14sec | 51MB | |
| | Using the combiner is beneficial, although combining the word occurrences in mapper manually is still faster. |
