Jason Dere commented on HIVE-20801:
-----------------------------------
Is anything going on with this Jira? I am +1 on this one, especially
considering that on Apache Hive there is still the ability to have
non-transactional managed tables.
> ACID: Allow DbTxnManager to ignore non-ACID table locking
> ---------------------------------------------------------

> Key: HIVE-20801
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-20801
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Locking, Transactions

> Enabling ACIDv1 on a cluster produces a central locking bottleneck for all
> table types, which is not always the intention.
> The Hive locking for non-acid tables are advisory (i.e a client can
> write/read without locking), which means that the implementation does not
> offer strong consistency despite the lock manager consuming resources
> centrally.
> Disabling this lock acquisition would improve the performance of non-ACID
> tables co-existing with a globally configured DbTxnManager implementation.
