Hey, I’m on the MapR platform using Drill 1.10 at the minute.
I have numerous parquet files that I need to query, but they have decimal data types in them. I do not actually need to query the decimal columns in general, but drill prevents me from querying the files as a whole even when I avoid those columns. I know I can “enable” decimal support. So I guess my questions are: 1. Will enabling decimal support actually make drill unstable, or does it just slow some queries down? 2. Is there any risk in enabling the support as long as I avoid querying the decimal columns? 3. Is decimal support being actively worked on and will it be available soon-ish?
