Gopal V commented on HIVE-17114: -------------------------------- Yes, the bucketed table fix was taken out of that patch and parked in HIVE-7148, because of backwards compatibility issues. The description in this jira sounds like HIVE-7074, in particular. > 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 > Attachments: HIVE-17114.1.patch > > > 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. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
