> HIVE-3833 fixed the targeted problem and made Hive to use partition-level
> metadata to initialize object inspector. In doing that, however, it goes thru
> every file under the table to access the partition metadata, which is very
> inefficient, especially in case of multiple files per partition. This causes
> more problem for AvroSerde because AvroSerde initialization accesses schema,
> which is located on file system. As a result, before hive can process any
> data, it needs to access every file for a table, which can take long enough
> to cause job failure because of lack of job progress.
> The improvement can be made so that partition metadata is only access once
> per partition.
