Zheng Shao commented on HIVE-1468: ---------------------------------- "select queries" means "SELECT" without "INSERT", correct? I agree that we should treat these queries differently, specifically, no compression (or maybe use lzo to same bandwidth - clients can be in other data centers) will be a big win. > intermediate data produced for select queries ignores > hive.exec.compress.intermediate > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-1468 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1468 > Project: Hadoop Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Query Processor > Reporter: Joydeep Sen Sarma > > > set hive.exec.compress.intermediate=false; > > explain extended select xxx from yyy; > ... > File Output Operator > compressed: true > GlobalTableId: 0 > looks like we only intermediate locations identified during splitting mr > tasks follow this directive. this should be fixed because this forces clients > to always decompress output data (even if the config setting is altered). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
