I have seen cases where if the table is a partitioned one or the data in
table
is large it will take a lot of time to delete. Also its the case that hive
contacts
hadoop during deletion of a table and if this connection is delayed it
will take
more time.

Hi,
Hive (0.12) seems to be very inconsistent with the duration for dropping a
table.
The tables' size varies between 5-10 GB.
Here is an example of few drops done in a row :
[hadoop@server ~]$ hive
Logging initialized using configuration in
file:/opt/mapr/hive/hive-0.12/conf/hive-log4j.prope
