That change my only be in trunk. Just in case he is referencing this. be
careful about lowering this. Queries with lots of AND/ORS will not compile

bin/ext/cli.sh
  else
      echo "Unable to determine Hadoop version information."
      echo "'hadoop version' returned:"
      echo `$HADOOP version`
      exit 6
  fi

  HADOOP_HEAPSIZE=4096
  HADOOP_OPTS="$HADOOP_OPTS -XX:-UseGCOverheadLimit"

  if [ $minor_ver -lt 20 ]; then
      exec $HADOOP jar $AUX_JARS_CMD_LINE ${HIVE_LIB}/hive-cli-*.jar $CLASS
$HIVE_OPTS "$@"
  else
      # hadoop 20 or newer - skip the aux_jars option. picked up from
hiveconf
      exec $HADOOP jar ${HIVE_LIB}/hive-cli-*.jar $CLASS $HIVE_OPTS "$@"
  fi
