Crap sorry hit send too early questions 1: Job overhead of generating statistics on the fly with
set hive.stats.autogather=true;? 2: Is stat descriptions in describe table extended implemented? I've gathered stats on a table but do not see the expected entries (rowNum = , etc) in the describe statement? 3: How does hive actually use stats to influence query plans? Any documentation? we are on CDH3 GA by the way thanks Guy On Thu, May 26, 2011 at 1:25 PM, Guy Bayes <fatal.er...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello all, I'm new to this list, > > I was wondering if anyone could answer a couple questions about the > implementation of statistics in 0.7? > > I've reviewed > http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Hive/StatsDev > > and have the following q >
