Edward Capriolo commented on HIVE-4518:
---------------------------------------
Can you please deal with these two items:
How many is too many? What is the limit and how many were there
{quote}
- fatalError = true;
LOG.error("Fatal error was thrown due to exceeding number of dynamic
partitions");
+ throw new HiveFatalException("Fatal Error: Too many partitions");
}
{quote}
Can this method be removed now?
{quote}
- @Override
protected void localizeMRTmpFilesImpl(Context ctx) {
// no op
}
{quote}

> Queries of the form:
> from foo
> insert overwrite table bar partition (p) select ...
> insert overwrite table bar partition (p) select ...
> insert overwrite table bar partition (p) select ...
> Generate a huge amount of counters. The reason is that task.progress is
> turned on for dynamic partitioning queries.
> The counters not only make queries slower than necessary (up to 50%) you will
> also eventually run out. That's because we're wrapping them in enum values to
> comply with hadoop 0.17.
> The real reason we turn task.progress on is that we need CREATED_FILES and
> FATAL counters to ensure dynamic partitioning queries don't go haywire.
> The counters have counter-intuitive names like C1 through C1000 and don't
> seem really useful by themselves.
> With hadoop 20+ you don't need to wrap the counters anymore, each operator
> can simply create and increment counters. That should simplify the code a lot.
