Namit Jain commented on HIVE-549:
---------------------------------
I agree completely - What I was trying to get at is
1. It is not specific to union all.
2. It does not need a change in compiler - just the scheduler change should be
good enough.
> UNION ALL statements should be run in parallel

> In a massively parallel database system, it would be awesome to also
> parallelize some of the mapreduce phases that our data needs to go through.
> One example that just occurred to me is UNION ALL: when you union two SELECT
> statements, effectively you could run those statements in parallel. There's
> no situation (that I can think of, but I don't have a formal proof) in which
> the left statement would rely on the right statement, or vice versa. So, they
> could be run at the same time...and perhaps they should be. Or, perhaps there
> should be a way to make this happen...PARALLEL UNION ALL? PUNION ALL?
