Gopal V commented on HIVE-7705: ------------------------------- Oh, in case anyone wants to dig into how ThreadLocals are obtained, it doesn't use the %gs/%fs registers (and therefore aren't comparable to the C/C++ equivalents). They are really entries stored in a currentThread as a hashmap named ThreadLocalMap + WeakReferences. > there's a useless threadlocal in LBUtils that shows up in perf profiles > ----------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-7705 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7705 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Sergey Shelukhin > Assignee: Sergey Shelukhin > Attachments: HIVE-7705.patch > > > It might be cheaper to just create a VInt every time, but it can also be > passed in externally. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
