Selina Zhang commented on HIVE-6492:
------------------------------------
Thanks, Ashutosh! Yes, it just limits partition per table scan intentionally.
It based on the assumption that most of queries only involve one instance
table. And it is more like a supplement for strict mode.

> To protect the cluster, a new configure variable
> "hive.limit.query.max.table.partition" is added to hive configuration to
> limit the table partitions involved in a table scan.
> The default value will be set to -1 which means there is no limit by default.
> This variable will not affect "metadata only" query.
