> The vectorized aggregates ignore the DISTINCT clause. This cause incorrect
> results. Due to how GroupByOperatorDesc adds the DISTINCT keys to the overall
> aggregate keys the vectorized aggregates do account for the extra key, but
> they do not process the data correctly for the key. the reduce side the
> aggregates the input from the vectorized map side to results that are only
> sometimes correct but mostly incorrect. HIVE-4607 tracks the proper fix, but
> meantime I'm filing a bug to disable vectorized execution if DISTINCT is
> present. Fix is trivial.
