Navis created HIVE-6809: --------------------------- Summary: Support bulk deleting directories for partition drop with partial spec Key: HIVE-6809 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6809 Project: Hive Issue Type: Improvement Components: Query Processor Reporter: Navis Assignee: Navis
In busy hadoop system, dropping many of partitions takes much more time than expected. In hive-0.11.0, removing 1700 partitions by single partial spec took 90 minutes, which is reduced to 3 minutes when deleteData is set false. I couldn't test this in recent hive, which has HIVE-6256 but if the time-taking part is mostly from removing directories, it seemed not helpful to reduce whole processing time. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
