> For hive on spark.
> Currently we rely on the sort order in RS to decide whether we need a
> sortByKey transformation. However a simple group by query will also have the
> sort order set to '+'.
> Consider the query: select key from table group by key. The RS in the map
> work will have sort order set to '+', thus requiring a sortByKey shuffle.
> To avoid the unnecessary sort, we should either use another way to decide if
> there has to be a sort shuffle, or we should set the sort order only when
> sort is really needed.
