Filtering out NULL-keyed rows in ReduceSinkOperator when no outer join involved -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HIVE-1544 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1544 Project: Hadoop Hive Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Ning Zhang As discussed in HIVE-741, if a plan indicates that a non-outer join is the first operator in the reducer, the ReduceSinkOperator should filter out (not sending) rows with NULL as keys since they will not generate any results anyways. This should save both bandwidth and processing power. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
