Mark Wagner commented on HIVE-4732: ----------------------------------- I double checked and I am using the latest release (1.7.4) for my benchmarks. Although the equals() method uses hashcode to quickly discard unequal schemas, it still does a full recursive walk of the schema to make sure all the nodes are equal, so I think this patch is still a necessary change. > Speed up AvroSerde by checking hashcodes instead of equality > ------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HIVE-4732 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-4732 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Serializers/Deserializers > Reporter: Mark Wagner > Assignee: Mark Wagner > Attachments: HIVE-4732.1.patch > > > The AvroSerde spends a significant amount of time checking schema equality. > Changing to compare hashcodes (which can be computed once then reused) will > improve performance. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
