Gopal V commented on HIVE-17114:
--------------------------------
[~lirui]: Changing the ObjectInspectorUtils.hashCode() implementation breaks
all existing bucketed tables, breaks SMB joins and Bucket map-joins.
Specifically this is a problem with Hive-on-Spark, which doesn't have an
underlying partitioner implementation for the
ReduceSinkDesc$ReducerTraits.UNIFORM trait.
> HoS: Possible skew in shuffling when data is not really skewed
> --------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: HIVE-17114
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-17114
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Rui Li
> Assignee: Rui Li
> Priority: Minor
>
> Observed in HoS and may apply to other engines as well.
> When we join 2 tables on a single int key, we use the key itself as hash code
> in {{ObjectInspectorUtils.hashCode}}:
> {code}
> case INT:
> return ((IntObjectInspector) poi).get(o);
> {code}
> Suppose the keys are different but are all some multiples of 10. And if we
> choose 10 as #reducers, the shuffle will be skewed.
