> Key: HIVE-22453
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-22453
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.3.6, 3.1.2
> Reporter: Toshihiko Uchida
> Assignee: Toshihiko Uchida
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: HIVE-22453.2.patch, HIVE-22453.2.patch, HIVE-22453.patch

>
> The simple describe table command without EXTENDED and FORMATTED (i.e.,
> DESCRIBE table_name) fetches all partitions when no partition is specified,
> although it does not display partition statistics in nature.
> The command should not fetch partitions since it can take a long time for a
> large amount of partitions.
> For instance, in our environment, the command takes around 8 seconds for a
> table with 8760 (24 * 365) partitions.
