Thomas Rebele updated HIVE-29824:
---------------------------------
    Description: 
When certain column level statistics (e.g., histograms) are stored at the 
partition level, they require a lot of disk space. Hive should provide a way so 
that the user can decide to store the statistics at the table level instead.

It needs to be decided whether to configure the property globally, for a table, 
or a particular column, and which types of statistics (histograms, NDV/HLL).

This would provide a workaround for the KLL instability caused by the non-fixed 
seed when merging KLL datasketches.
