Thanks Maximilian. My use case is similar to the example given in the graph analysis. In graph analysis, the reduce function used is a normal reduce function. I executed that with both scenarios and your justification is right. the normal reduce function have a combiner before sorting unlike the GroupReduce function. my question, how is it effecting the performance as the result is same in both the situation.
