Recently, we ran into HCat_server running out of memory every few days, and it boiled down to a bug in thrift, (recently fixed). One sees that the HCat-0.2-branch depends on Hive-0.8, which in turn depends on thrift-0.5.0. Hive-trunk depends on thrift-0.7.0. I'm afraid I'm not privy to the reasoning behind Hive's dependency on a slightly dated thrift-lib. May I please enquire if Hive can't depend on a more current version? (Does it break the metastore?)
