Ashutosh Chauhan commented on HIVE-1608: ---------------------------------------- That indeed is useful. Lets do this change. I guess for performance there might be some binary format we may want to choose later, but for now supporting new line character in column is welcome change. We have to make sure its backward compatible for insert overwrite case though. > use sequencefile as the default for storing intermediate results > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-1608 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1608 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Query Processor > Affects Versions: 0.7.0 > Reporter: Namit Jain > Assignee: Brock Noland > Fix For: 0.14.0 > > Attachments: HIVE-1608.patch > > > The only argument for having a text file for storing intermediate results > seems to be better debuggability. > But, tailing a sequence file is possible, and it should be more space > efficient -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
