Sergey Shelukhin commented on HIVE-20234:
-----------------------------------------
StatsUpdaterThread already has such a config. However, having compactor update
stats might still be necessary for backward compat for people who won't turn on
the stats updater.
> Add an option to disable stats computation from Compactor
> ---------------------------------------------------------

> Key: HIVE-20234
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-20234
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Transactions
> Affects Versions: 1.0.0
> Reporter: Eugene Koifman
> Priority: Major
>
> Currently \{{Woker.StatsUpdater}} will run \{{analyze table ... compute
> statistics for columns ...}} at the end of each Major compaction to update
> stats on columns that already have stats.
>
> It would be useful to add a config option that allows better control over
> this. I could have 3 values: don't update col stats, update existing col
> stats, update all col stats.
> Should this have ability to update table level stats? Is that needed given
> HIVE-19532?
