David Mollitor commented on TEZ-4130:
-------------------------------------
Hive has {{hive.exec.reducers.max}} to cap the number of Reducers.
Is there some way to pin the maximum number of tasks to the bucket number
limitations (4k) so that this will work out-of-the-box?

> During the investigation of a customer issue, I found that tez generated a
> dag plan containing >4k tasks. It failed for hive because of bucket number
> limitations (4k). It can be configured properly, e.g. bigger splits
> (tez.grouping.min-size), but maybe it would be more convenient for users to
> config a hard limit for shuffle vertex manager.
> However, I'm not really sure if it's correct to force changing the max task
> parallelism after split generation already happened (e.g.
