 To use multiple reducers, the MR job must be executed by a cluster (even with one computer), not locally. The number of reducers is specified by ''-r'' flag: To use multiple reducers, the MR job must be executed by a cluster (even with one computer), not locally. The number of reducers is specified by ''-r'' flag:
-  perl script.pl run [-jt cluster_master | -c cluster_size [-w sec_to_wait]] [-r number_of_reducers]+  perl script.pl [-jt cluster_master | -c cluster_size [-w sec_to_wait]] [-r number_of_reducers]
  
 Optimal number of reducers is the same as the number of machines in the cluster, so that all the reducers can run in parallel at the same time. Optimal number of reducers is the same as the number of machines in the cluster, so that all the reducers can run in parallel at the same time.
