------------------------------------
Assignee: Caizhi Weng
> Optimize parallelism calculating of HiveTableSource by checking file number
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLINK-19641
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-19641
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Connectors / Hive
> Reporter: Caizhi Weng
> Assignee: Caizhi Weng
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 1.12.0
>
>
> The current implementation of {{HiveTableSource#calculateParallelism}}
> directly uses {{inputFormat.createInputSplits(0).length}} as the number of
> splits. However {{createInputSplits}} may be costly as it will read some data
> from all source files, especially when the table is not partitioned and the
> number of files are large.
> Many Hive tables maintain the number of files in that table, and it's obvious
> that the number of splits is at least the number of files. So we can try to
> fetch the number of files (almost without cost) first and if the number of
> files already exceeds maximum parallelism we can directly use the maximum
> parallelism without calling {{createInputSplits}}.
> This is a significant optimization on the current flink TPCDS benchmark,
> which will create some table with 15000 files without partitioning. This
> optimization will improve the performance of the whole benchmark by 300s and
> more.
