Kevin Minder created HIVE-19996: ----------------------------------- Summary: Beeline performance poor with drivers having slow DatabaseMetaData.getPrimaryKeys impl Key: HIVE-19996 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-19996 Project: Hive Issue Type: Improvement Components: Beeline Affects Versions: 1.2.1 Environment: Issue detected using Beeline with HBase Phoenix thin driver and a result set with many columns. Reporter: Kevin Minder
Beeline performance is rather poor for table output format when two conditions occur for the same result set. # The result set has a large number of columns. # The driver being used has a slow implementation of DatabaseMetaData.getPrimaryKeys. For example testing has shown that for a query with ~100 columns using the HBase Phoenix thin driver the execution time can be cut from ~30 seconds to ~2 seconds by using CSV output format vs table output format. For example: {{select * from system.catalog;}} This is due to how primary keys are detected. Currently the Rows implementation will make a metadata call for every column to determine it is a primary key for display purposes. I propose optimizing this such that a metadata call is only made for each unique table in the result set's columns. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
