Aihua Xu commented on HIVE-1608:
--------------------------------
Seems it makes sense to switch to use SequenceFile by default. It will save the
space. The newline characters in the intermediate text file are escaped, so we
shouldn't have that issue any more.
I will regenerate the baselines.

> The only argument for having a text file for storing intermediate results
> seems to be better debuggability.
> But, tailing a sequence file is possible, and it should be more space
