Re: Parquet Hive table become very slow on 1.3?
Xudong and Rex, Can you try 1.3.1? With PR 5339 http://github.com/apache/spark/pull/5339 , after we get a hive parquet from metastore and convert it to our native parquet code path, we will cache the converted relation. For now, the first access to that hive parquet table reads all of the footers (when you first refer to that table in a query or call sqlContext.table(hiveParquetTable)). All of your later accesses will hit the metadata cache.

Re: Parquet Hive table become very slow on 1.3?
Yin, Thanks for your reply. We already patched this PR to our 1.3.0 As Xudong mentioned, we have thousand of parquet files, it's very very slow in first read, and another app will add more files and refresh table regularly. Cheng Lian's PR-5334 seems can resolve this issue, it will skip read all footer if we set auto merge to false. But it's not done yet.
