Attachment: HIVE-2368.1.patch
> Determining whether a Column Descriptor is unused may take too long
> -------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: HIVE-2368
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2368
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Metastore

>
>
> To determine if a column descriptor is unused, we call
> listStorageDescriptorsWithCD(), which may return a big list of SDs. This can
> severely slow down dropping partitions.
> We can add a maximum number of SDs to return, and just ask for 1 SD, since we
> are just doing an existential check.
