                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1580
             Project: Hadoop Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Query Processor
            Reporter: Joydeep Sen Sarma
            Assignee: Joydeep Sen Sarma


a few problems:

- if a job is retired - then counters cannot be obtained and a stack trace is 
printed out (from history code). this confuses users
- too many calls to getCounters. after a job has been detected to be finished - 
there are quite a few more calls to get the job status and the counters. we 
need to figure out a way to curtail this - in busy clusters the gap between the 
job getting finished and the hive client noticing is very perceptible and 
impacts user experience.

calls to getCounters are very expensive in 0.20 as they grab a jobtracker 
global lock (something we have fixed internally at FB)
