Owen O'Malley commented on HIVE-9188:
-------------------------------------
[~prasanth_j] Please remove the upper two levels of bloom filters. They are
utterly useless. Their false positive rate will be far above 99%.
They absolutely should not be stored in the column statistics. That will hurt
the common ppd case and not help.

> BloomFilters are well known probabilistic data structure for set membership
> checking. We can use bloom filters in ORC index for better row group pruning.
> Currently, ORC row group index uses min/max statistics to eliminate row
> groups (stripes as well) that do not satisfy predicate condition specified in
> the query. But in some cases, the efficiency of min/max based elimination is
> not optimal (unsorted columns with wide range of entries). Bloom filters can
> be an effective and efficient alternative for row group/split elimination for
> point queries or queries with IN clause.
