Ning Zhang commented on HIVE-562:
---------------------------------

Can this be done by storing input (storage in JoinOperator.java and 
CommonJoinOperator.java) from one group to an external-storage-backed hash 
table (eg., HTree in JDBM as map-side join) rather than main memory hash table?

> join does not work well if there is a very large skew in keys

> Only the last table is streamed in case of regular joins.
> So, for any other table, or for any small table (in case of map-joins), if 
> the number of values for a given key are very large, it does not scale.
