Namit Jain commented on HIVE-964:
---------------------------------

Instead of making Driver aware of conditional task - can we change the code 
structure ?
Pass a context to execute()/initialize() if needed.

The current tasks would ignore the context. But the conditional task would add 
the resulting tasks in the queue which will be 
passed in the context.

> handle skewed keys for a join in a separate job

> The skewed keys can be written to a temporary table or file, and a followup 
> conditional task can be used to perform the join on those keys.
> As a first step, JDBM can be used for those keys
