Sahil Takiar commented on HIVE-19937:
-------------------------------------
It doesn't. The patch in HIVE-16395 dealt with the concurrent modification
exceptions, but the patch creates duplicate {{JobConf}} objects.

> When fixing HIVE-16395, we decided that each new Spark task should clone the
> {{JobConf}} object to prevent any {{ConcurrentModificationException}} from
> being thrown. However, setting this variable comes at a cost of storing a
> duplicate {{JobConf}} object for each Spark task. These objects can take up a
> significant amount of memory, we should intern them so that Spark tasks
> running in the same JVM don't store duplicate copies.
