Joydeep Sen Sarma reopened HIVE-2039:
-------------------------------------
Assignee: Joydeep Sen Sarma
spoke too fast - the version check has moved to a different place - but it's
still there. i plan to provide a way to avoid the version check (via env var)
because it's pretty expensive. it would still be there by default.
> remove hadoop version check from hive cli shell script

> looking at cli startup times - one thing i noticed is that the version check
> in execHiveCmd.sh consumes 0.5-1s of wall-clock time (depending on where hive
> is installed).
> AFAIK - hive doesn't support versions less than 20 right now - and this check
> is only to check if version is less than 20. So we should be able to safely
> take it out. please comment if that is not the case.
