Ashutosh Chauhan commented on HIVE-13901:
-----------------------------------------
Reason to not add it is to not bloat Hive's code. Its very easy to introduce
bugs in multi-threaded case. Not to speak about bugs related to leaking
threads, file descriptors etc. in long running metastore process
> Hivemetastore add partitions can be slow depending on filesystems
