Yuntao Jia commented on HIVE-396:
---------------------------------

Can you check how many jobs are there in the Hive query? If there are two, it 
means the output from Hive are merged to a single file by running an additional 
map-reduce job. If that is the case, you can turn it off by change the 
following property in Hive-default.xml to FALSE (it is true by default).

hive.merge.mapfiles true 
"Merge small files at the end of a map-only job"

Other than that, I have no idea why Hive is so slow.
