             Summary: Enable bucketed sorted merge joins of arbitrary subqueries
                 Key: HIVE-6057
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6057
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Query Processor
    Affects Versions: 0.12.0
            Reporter: Jan-Erik Hedbom
            Priority: Minor


Currently, you cannot use bucketed SMJ when joining subquery results. It would 
make sense to be able to explicitly specify bucketing of the intermediate 
output from a subquery to enable bucketed SMJ.

For example, the following query will NOT use bucketed SMJ:
(gameends and dummymapping are clustered and sorted by hashid into 128 buckets)

select * from (select hashid,count(*) as c from gameends group by hashid 
distribute by hashid sort by hashid) e join dummymapping m on e.hashid=m.hashid

Suggestion: Implement an INTO n BUCKETS syntax for subqueries to enable 
bucketed SMJ:
select * from (select hashid,count(*) as c from gameends group by hashid 
distribute by hashid sort by hashid INTO 128 BUCKETS) e join dummymapping m on 
e.hashid=m.hashid
