It is not a must to sort all the data that passes through the jobs. Sorting data is done only if requried. And in cases if you have filter option need to be held, you can do that before sorting so that sort can have less data to process. If you have any group by operation that need to be done, like ...

This has been discussed many times. One other option, Sort and Enable the KeyChange option. And in transformer, you can track the value of this field and filter based on it.
Or Remove the duplicate, and find a difference with the original file using Difference stage.
And there are many options too.
