Xuefu Zhang commented on HIVE-8844:
-----------------------------------
[~jxiang], Sorry for chiming in late. I don't think we need to make this
configurable. I think choosing memory + disk is good enough for now. We can
make it configurable in the future if need arises. For now, I think the simpler
the better. Hive has too many configurations already.

> RDD caching is used for performance reasons in some multi-insert queries.
> Currently, we call RDD.cache(), which indicates a persistency policy of using
> memory only. We should choose a better policy. I think memory+disk will be
> good enough. Refer to RDD.persist() for more information.
