Zheng Shao commented on HIVE-759: --------------------------------- I think the check of "if(LzoCodec.class.isAssignableFrom(codec) && !LzoCodec.isNativeLzoLoaded(jc))" is not necessary. I think we should make a copy of jobconf before calling these 2 functions, to make sure it does not affect other parts of the code. FileOutputFormat.setOutputCompressorClass SequenceFileOutputFormat.setOutputCompressionType What do you think? > add hive.intermediate.compression.codec option > ---------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-759 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-759 > Project: Hadoop Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Query Processor > Reporter: Zheng Shao > Assignee: He Yongqiang > Attachments: hive-759-2009-08-17.patch > > > Hive uses the jobconf compression codec for all map-reduce jobs. This > includes both mapred.map.output.compression.codec and > mapred.output.compression.codec. > In some cases, we want to distinguish between the codec used for intermediate > map-reduce jobs (that produces intermediate data between jobs) and the final > map-reduce jobs (that produces data stored in tables). > For intermediate data, lzo might be a better fit because it's much faster; > for final data, gzip might be a better fit because it saves disk spaces. > We should introduce two new options: > {code} > hive.intermediate.compression.codec=org.apache.hadoop.io.compress.LzoCodec > hive.intermediate.compression.type=BLOCK > {code} > And use these 2 options to override the mapred.output.compression.* in the > FileSinkOperator that produces intermediate data. > Note that it's possible that a single map-reduce job may have 2 > FileSInkOperators: one produces intermediate data, and one produces final > data. So we need to add a flag to fileSinkDesc for that. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
