Prasanth J commented on HIVE-4621:
----------------------------------
My understanding is that "LOAD DATA LOCAL" will never update statistics esp.
numRows. This is an expected behavior. The description says load data local is
used so describe formatted will always show numRows as 0.
> "describe formatted" for table shows incorrect numRows data

> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: CLI
> Affects Versions: 0.10.0
> Reporter: Gwen Shapira
>
> Created table (tab delimited), used "load data local" to get data into the
> table.
> After creating the table, "describe formatted" showed numRow as 0.
> select count(*) from... showed 43205 rows.
> Running "describe formatted" after "select count(*)" still shows numRows as 0.
