---------------------------------------

             Summary: S3: Fetching partition sizes from FS can be expensive 
when stats are not available in metastore 
                 Key: HIVE-14423
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-14423
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Rajesh Balamohan
            Priority: Minor


When partition stats are not available in metastore, it tries to get the file 
sizes from FS.

e.g
{noformat}

        at 
org.apache.hadoop.fs.FileSystem.getContentSummary(FileSystem.java:1487)
        at 
org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.stats.StatsUtils.getFileSizeForPartitions(StatsUtils.java:598)

org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.stats.StatsUtils.collectStatistics(StatsUtils.java:235)

        at 
org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.optimizer.stats.annotation.StatsRulesProcFactory$TableScanStatsRule.process(StatsRulesProcFactory.java:126)
        at 
org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.lib.DefaultRuleDispatcher.dispatch(DefaultRuleDispatcher.java:90)
        at 
org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.lib.DefaultGraphWalker.dispatchAndReturn(DefaultGraphWalker.java:105)
{noformat}

This can be quite expensive in some FS like S3. Especially when table is 
partitioned (e.g TPC-DS store_sales which has 1000s of partitions), query can 
spend 1000s of seconds just waiting for these information to be pulled in.

Also, it would be good to remove FS.getContentSummary usage to find out file 
sizes.
