comment What is the most effective way to find distinct of columns in hadoop
No, If you have 10000 different values for D then these will result in 10000 different keys (the exact distincts you are looking for). These 10000 can be distributed over 10000 reducer tasks. The straggler effect depend on the maximum number of different values you have for a single distinct key. If you then still have such an effect you could consider using a combiner (partially reduce within the mapper task).

comment Chaining multiple MapReduce jobs in Hadoop
Your answer is about how to join these jobs in terms of execution. The original question was about the best datastructures. So your answer is not relevant for this specific question.

comment Hadoop secondary sort for values. Sorting, gorping loose values
I can't tell if you implemented everything correctly. I assume you implemented the correct compareTo method for your key and value classes? If not then it will do a byte by byte compare.
