Thejas M Nair created HIVE-5666: ----------------------------------- Summary: use Path instead of String for IOContext.inputPath Key: HIVE-5666 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-5666 Project: Hive Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Thejas M Nair Assignee: Thejas M Nair Attachments: HIVE-5666.1.patch
Path is converted to string in HiveContextAwareRecordReader to be stored in IOContext.inputPath, then in MapOperator normalizePath gets called on it which converts it back to Path. Path creation is expensive, so it is better to use Path instead of string through the call stack. This is also a step towards HIVE-3616. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1#6144)
