-------------------------------------------------------------
bq. API will need to be augmented to explicitly say what is needed/not needed.
Any changes to the HMS API should use the single request object argument model
as opposed to the current method of multiple arguments to a method. This will
allow us to easily iterate on these API's without breaking compatibility.

> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Brock Noland
> Priority: Critical
>
> Even with direct SQL, which significantly improves MS performance, some
> operations take a considerable amount of time, when there are many partitions
> on table. Specifically I believe the issue:
> * When a client gets all partitions we do not send them an iterator, we
> create a collection of all data and then pass the object over the network in
> total
> * Operations which require looking up data on the NN can still be slow since
> there is no cache of information and it's done in a serial fashion
> * Perhaps a tangent, but our client timeout is quite dumb. The client will
> timeout and the server has no idea the client is gone. We should use
> deadlines, i.e. pass the timeout to the server so it can calculate that the
> client has expired.
