Kevin Cheung updated HIVE-24965: -------------------------------- Description: In certain 3rd party UIs, they issue a describe table command, and usually it's either "describe formatted table" or "describe extended table", and it will take a very long time. There is no way to change the Hive UI settings so this will allow users to change the behavior at any time. (was: In certain 3rd party UIs, they issue a describe table command, and usually it's either "describe formatted table" or "describe extended table", and it will take a very long time. When there is a highly partitioned table (10k+) partitions, the previous behavior for Hive 1.2 was that it never collected the statistics so describe formatted/extended was fast in the UI. Users will have no way of retaining the old experience where their UI was fast and responsive.) > Describe table partition fetch should be configurable > ----------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-24965 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-24965 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 3.0.0, 3.1.1, 3.1.2 > Reporter: Kevin Cheung > Assignee: Kevin Cheung > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 4.0.0 > > > In certain 3rd party UIs, they issue a describe table command, and usually > it's either "describe formatted table" or "describe extended table", and it > will take a very long time.
