Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-5793:
--------------------------------------

> So does a negative value mean that file lengths are not calculated, therefore 
> fetch task conversion will always occur if hive.fetch.task.conversion is true?

[~gopalv] explained in a comment on HIVE-3990 
([https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3990?focusedCommentId=14052977&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-14052977]):

{quote}
-1 does not mean "disabled". it means "infinite"
{quote}

But the description says "Input threshold for applying 
hive.fetch.task.conversion" and not "Input threshold for converting to a fetch 
task -- so presumably the "minimal" or "more" setting of 
hive.fetch.task.conversion still has an effect.

Anyway, all three fetch task parameters are documented in the wiki here:

* [Configuration Properties -- hive.fetch.task.conversion | 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/Configuration+Properties#ConfigurationProperties-hive.fetch.task.conversion]
* [Configuration Properties -- hive.fetch.task.aggr | 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/Configuration+Properties#ConfigurationProperties-hive.fetch.task.aggr]
* [Configuration Properties -- hive.fetch.task.conversion.threshold | 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/Configuration+Properties#ConfigurationProperties-hive.fetch.task.conversion.threshold]
