Rajesh Balamohan commented on HIVE-17229:
-----------------------------------------

Patch lgtm in terms of reducing the locking contention when {{threadPool}} is 
already initialized. 

[~yuan_zac] - When you say "locks during initialization", does it hang during 
init phase?. Or is the intent to reduce the locking contention?

> HiveMetastore HMSHandler locks during initialization, even though its static 
> variable threadPool is not null

> A thread pool is used to accelerate adding partitions operation, since 
> [HIVE-13901|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-13901]. 
> However, HMSHandler needs a lock during initialization every time, even 
> though its static variable threadPool is not null
