[Hive] multi group by statement is not optimized
------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-4139
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4139
             Project: Hadoop Core
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Namit Jain
            Assignee: Namit Jain


A simple multi-group by statement is not optimized. A simple statement like:

FROM SRC
INSERT OVERWRITE TABLE DEST1 SELECT SRC.key, count(distinct  
SUBSTR(SRC.value,4)) GROUP BY SRC.key
INSERT OVERWRITE TABLE DEST2 SELECT SRC.key, count(distinct  
SUBSTR(SRC.value,4)) GROUP BY SRC.key;


results in making 2 copies of the data (SRC). Instead, the data can be first 
partially aggregated on the distinct value and then aggregated. 
The first step can be common to all group bys.
