WTF would someone create *new* Hadoop jobs in C++? LOL.
Not only it will be much slower than the native Java version, but also much bigger pain to run.
I have mostly coded in C++ for the past 10 years. For now I am forced to do it.
And Java is more slow probably. since it is an interpretive language.
EDIT:I didn't say I want to create "new" programs. I just want to run this example. I am to give a presentation in front of a class and want to have implemented that particular program as an example.
