Description

The algorithm provided as an example is from the IntegerSplitter. When using Oracle on primary keys, the BigDecimalSplitter will be used which has slightly different functionality.

From mailing list: "Split lengths are defined by (max - min)/(# mappers) and whatever is left is tacked on at the end."
