Jason Altekruse updated DRILL-3209:
-----------------------------------
Description: All reads against Hive are currently done through the Hive
Serde interface, while this provides the most flexibility the API is not
optimized for maximum performance while reading the data into Drill's native
data structures. For Parquet and Text file backed tables, we can plan these
reads as Drill native reads. Currently reads of these file types provide
untyped data. While parquet has metadata in the file we currently do not make
use of the type information while planning. For text files we read all of the
files as lists of varchars. In both of these cases, casts will need to be
injected to provide the same datatypes provided by the reads through the SerDe
interface.
> [Umbrella] Plan reads of Hive tables as native Drill reads when a native
