> In certain 3rd party hive UIs, they issue a describe table command, and
> usually it's either "describe formatted table" or "describe extended table",
> and it will take a very long time for highly partitioned tables (10k+). In
> the UI, there is no way to change the settings (to use "describe table"),
> thus impairing the user experience. Prior to the feature where partition
> stats was gathered, the experience with using the UI had no problems.
> This will allow users to selectively change the describe formatted/extended
> table behavior at any time.
>
> *The setting will be:*
> hive.describe.partitionedtable.ignore.stats = false; – default behavior (no
> user impact)
