> {{HiveMetaStoreClient.dropDatabase}} has a strange implementation to ensure
> dealing with client side hooks (for non-native tables e.g. HBase). Currently
> it starts by retrieving all the tables from HMS, and then sends {{dropTable}}
> calls to HMS table-by-table. At the end a {{dropDatabase}} just to be sure :)
> I believe this could be refactored so that it speeds up the dropDB in
> situations where the average table count per DB is very high.
