        *** If your input collection is sharded:
            
            You'll need to enable 'read_shard_chunks' also to read 
            individual chunk data into the system.  Otherwise enabling this 
            will use the "Unsharded" mode as described below.

        *** If your input collection is unsharded (or you didn't enable chunk reading):

        If creating input splits is true (the default), 'mongo.input.split_size' will
        control the approx. # of megabytes assigned per calculated InputSplit.

        You'll probably want to set 'mongo.input.split.split_key_pattern' as well
        to control the split point (defaults to {_id: 1}).

        If this is false, only one InputSplit will be created which is fairly inefficient
        Hadoopery.
