------------------------------

Hi [~klonikar],

Thanks for your interest. When I did the tests, I only checked whether spark 
can support the various hive file formats. I didn't dive into the code details 
either.
To answer your question, my guess is that both hive table and spark RDD are 
nothing but a bunch of hadoop files at the very bottom. How the file is read is 
the job of specific RecordReader/SerDe of that file format. At the higher level 
both hive table and RDD are row-wise. [~xuefuz] please correct me if I 
misunderstand.

Although I didn't find any issue during this JIRA, please feel free to report 
any problems you found. Thanks!
