Hi,

I am a hive newbie.I just finished setting up hive on a cluster of two servers 
for my organisation.As a test drill, we operated some simple queries.It took 
the 
standard map-reduce algorithm around 4 minutes just to execute this query:

count(1) from tablename;

The answer returned was around 2200.Clearly, this is not a big number by hadoop 
standards.My question is whether this is a standard performance or is there 
some 
configuration that is not optimised?Will scaling up of data to say,50 times, 
produce any drastic slowness?I tried reading the documentation but was not 
clear 
on these issues, and i would like to have an idea before this setup starts 
working in a production environment.

Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Abhishek Pathak
