             Summary: Enhance Compaction Cleaner to skip when there is nothing 
to do
                 Key: HIVE-25883
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-25883
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Zoltan Haindrich
            Assignee: Zoltan Haindrich


the cleaner works the following way:
* it identifies obsolete directories (delta dirs ; which doesn't have open txns)
* removes them and done

if there are no obsolete directoris that is attributed to that there might be 
open txns so the request should be retried later.

however if for some reason the directory was already cleaned - similarily it 
has no obsolete directories; and thus the request is retried for forever
