Brock Noland commented on HIVE-8722: ------------------------------------ The MAPREDUCE-5896 introduced {{InputSplitWithLocationInfo}} so that tasks can be scheduled where blocks are located in memory via hdfs caching. It seems we should implement this.

This could help other execution engine too. So we should > consider to enhance InputSplitShim to implement InputSplitWithLocationInfo if > possible. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
