Alan,
if you are looking for data mining software that runs well in Hadoop, I would definitely recommend looking into Apache Mahout [1]. This software is specifically focused on categorization and clustering, and these algorithms tend to work well in the distributed architecture of a Hadoop-based system. If you are looking for parsers, taggers, tokenizers, then a different system (Gate / OpenNLP / UIMA) would be more appropriate.
