Kanna Karanam commented on HIVE-3127:
-------------------------------------

Thanks Edward, I thought of removing the arguments option completely, but I 
felt that it can introduce a small perf hit on Linux unnecessarily as we are 
creating/deleting a temp files for every task execution. If we feel that this 
perf hit is negligible then I will remove the arguments option.
Thanks

> The maximum length of the DOS command string is 8191 characters (in Windows 
> latest versions http://support.microsoft.com/kb/830473). This limit will be 
> exceeded easily when it appends individual –hconf values to the command 
> string. To work around this problem, Write all changed hconf values to a temp 
> file and pass the temp file path to the child jvm to read and initialize the 
> -hconf parameters from file.
