Vihang Karajgaonkar commented on HIVE-19041:
--------------------------------------------
The test which did not show comments as wasting but then in my testing we do
not use comments to the column fields. We would need actual dumps from users to
confirm that theory which we don't have. Particularly for this issue. Even
otherwise, I think we can intern the comment in the partition objects since
they will be the same for all the partitions.
> Thrift deserialization of Partition objects should intern fields

> When a client is creating large number of partitions, the thrift objects are
> deserialized into Partition objects. The read method of these objects does
> not intern the inputformat, location, outputformat which cause large number
> of duplicate Strings in the HMS memory. We should intern these objects while
> deserialization to reduce memory pressure.
