             Summary: ACID: Improve transaction Abort logic due to timeout
                 Key: HIVE-11317
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-11317
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Metastore, Transactions
    Affects Versions: 1.0.0
            Reporter: Eugene Koifman
            Assignee: Eugene Koifman


the logic to Abort transactions that have stopped heartbeating is in
TxnHandler.timeOutTxns()
This is only called when DbTxnManger.getValidTxns() is called.
So if there is a lot of txns that need to be timed out and the there are not 
SQL clients talking to the system, there is nothing to abort dead transactions, 
and thus compaction can't clean them up so garbage accumulates in the system.

Also, streaming api doesn't call DbTxnManager at all.

Need to move this logic into Initiator (or some other metastore side thread).
Also, make sure it is broken up into multiple small(er) transactions against 
metastore DB.

Also more timeOutLocks() locks there as well.
