Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. run sort on a file larger than emu's memory allocation

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
It runs out of memory.

Implement an external sort. See Plan9's sort as a guide. This is important
for getting any further with the mapreduce experiments.

I began coding it but haven't finished or tested any of it yet:
