Initially every writer will be concurrently spilling to the same > first directory, then the same second directory, etc. Even when evenly > dispersed this effect will naturally occur due to the bunching effect. > One solution is to use a global counter when selecting the temporary path. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
