I used reducers for processing lots of XML files. Probably the most common pitfall is, that fork only does parallel computation when working on a vector. While all the XML data would not have fit into memory, the vector of filenames to read from certainly did, and that made a big difference. Plus, I reduced the chunksize from default 512 to 1.
