Prasanth Jayachandran commented on HIVE-12882:
----------------------------------------------
RCFile still uses three modes with different semantics. noscan, partialscan and
default full scan. Dropping in the parser will break RCFile behaviour. As far
as ORC is concerned, it really doesn't matter what user specifies.
> Automatically choose to use noscan for stats collection

> noscan is leveraging the file system to derive the #rows and rawDataSize.
> According to [~ashutoshc], it now only works with RC and ORC file type. We
> would like Hive to automatically choose to use noscan or scan based on the
> file system when stats task starts or when user issues the same query
> "Analyze ...."
