Rajesh Balamohan commented on HIVE-14423: ----------------------------------------- [~cnauroth] - Thanks for the details. Yes, I used listStatus with recursive option as it would be tuned with the patches Steve is working on. But need to check if this is going to hurt HDFS performance due to number of network calls. I have not done that experiment yet. It would be good to have an optimized version of getContentSummary in S3A. I will share the revised patch. > S3: Fetching partition sizes from FS can be expensive when stats are not > available in metastore > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HIVE-14423 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-14423 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Rajesh Balamohan > Assignee: Rajesh Balamohan > Priority: Minor > Attachments: HIVE-14423.1.patch > > > When partition stats are not available in metastore, it tries to get the file > sizes from FS. > e.g > {noformat} > at > org.apache.hadoop.fs.FileSystem.getContentSummary(FileSystem.java:1487) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.stats.StatsUtils.getFileSizeForPartitions(StatsUtils.java:598) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.stats.StatsUtils.collectStatistics(StatsUtils.java:235) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.stats.StatsUtils.collectStatistics(StatsUtils.java:144) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.stats.StatsUtils.collectStatistics(StatsUtils.java:132) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.optimizer.stats.annotation.StatsRulesProcFactory$TableScanStatsRule.process(StatsRulesProcFactory.java:126) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.lib.DefaultRuleDispatcher.dispatch(DefaultRuleDispatcher.java:90) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.lib.DefaultGraphWalker.dispatchAndReturn(DefaultGraphWalker.java:105) > {noformat} > This can be quite expensive in some FS like S3.
