Xuefu Zhang commented on HIVE-10989: ------------------------------------ [~lirui], Thanks for working on this. Changes look good except that I don't quite understand the 3rd part of the change. Could you please explain? Thanks. > HoS can't control number of map tasks for runtime skew join [Spark Branch] > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-10989 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-10989 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: Spark > Reporter: Rui Li > Assignee: Rui Li > Attachments: HIVE-10989.1-spark.patch > > > Flags {{hive.skewjoin.mapjoin.map.tasks}} and > {{hive.skewjoin.mapjoin.min.split}} are used to control the number of map > tasks for the map join of runtime skew join. They work well for MR but have > no effect for spark. > This makes runtime skew join less useful, i.e. we just end up with slow > mappers instead of reducers. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
