Master determinesMn, the number of mappers to spawnMf, the number of input files to pass to each
mapper
Mapper Scheduling(1)
Assumes fs is several times smaller than bs
16
Rate limiting of URL shortening services
Bit.lyEncode URLs up to 2022 characters in length, Us =
2022Rate-limits requests to 99 per IP address per
minute, Un = 99
