> HCatInputFormat has a cache feature that allows HCat to cache hive client
> connections to the metastore, so as to not keep reinstantiating a new hive
> server every single time. This uses a guava cache of hive clients, which only
> evicts entries from cache on the next write, or by manually managing the
> cache.
> So, in a single threaded case, where we reuse the hive client, the cache
> works well, but in a massively multithreaded case, where each thread might
> perform one action, and then is never used, there are no more writes to the
> cache, and all the clients stay alive, thus keeping ports open.
