Gopal V commented on HIVE-11502:
--------------------------------
[~ychena]: I've linked the issue to the known issue in HADOOP-12217
Is it possible that you're testing hive against different versions of Hadoop
between 0.13 vs 1.2.?
> Map side aggregation is extremely slow
> --------------------------------------
>
> Key: HIVE-11502
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-11502
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Logical Optimizer, Physical Optimizer
> Affects Versions: 1.2.0
> Reporter: Yongzhi Chen
> Assignee: Yongzhi Chen
>
> For the query as following:
> {noformat}
> create table tbl2 as
> select col1, max(col2) as col2
> from tbl1 group by col1;
> {noformat}
> If the column for group by has many different values (for example 400000) and
> it is in type double, the map side aggregation is very slow. I ran the query
> which took more than 3 hours , after 3 hours, I have to kill the query.
> The same query can finish in 7 seconds, if I turn off map side aggregation by:
> {noformat}
> set hive.map.aggr = false;
> {noformat}
