Joseph Adler commented on PIG-3015:
-----------------------------------

Hi Russ,

I think you're right... it looks like you could do something like this in 
AvroRecordReader.nextKeyValue:

{code}
  @Override
  public boolean nextKeyValue() throws IOException, InterruptedException {

    if (reader.pastSync(end)) {
      return false;
    }

    try {
      currentRecord = reader.next(new GenericData.Record(schema));
    } catch (NoSuchElementException e) {
      return false;
    } catch (IOException ioe) {
      reader.sync(reader.tell()+1);
      throw ioe;
    }

    return true;
  }
{code}

Let me test this out to make sure it runs correctly on uncorrupted files. Would 
you mind creating a corrupted test file that I can use for testing?

> The current AvroStorage implementation has a lot of issues: it requires old 
> versions of Avro, it copies data much more than needed, and it's verbose and 
> complicated. (One pet peeve of mine is that old versions of Avro don't 
> support Snappy compression.)
> I rewrote AvroStorage from scratch to fix these issues. In early tests, the 
> new implementation is significantly faster, and the code is a lot simpler. 
> Rewriting AvroStorage also enabled me to implement support for Trevni (as 
> TrevniStorage).
> I'm opening this ticket to facilitate discussion while I figure out the best 
> way to contribute the changes back to Apache.
