Szehon Ho commented on HIVE-7575: --------------------------------- Patch seems to help a lot! I think it helps for when many tables case too, I dont know about the case of many database. One small question, why can't table_types be a list instead of a large string in metastoreClient.getTableMetas() method? The other MetastoreClient api's have arguments in list form, so it will be cleaner. Is it for performance reasons? > GetTables thrift call is very slow > ---------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-7575 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7575 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: HiveServer2 > Affects Versions: 0.12.0, 0.13.0 > Reporter: Ashu Pachauri > Assignee: Navis > Attachments: HIVE-7575.1.patch.txt, HIVE-7575.2.patch.txt, > HIVE-7575.3.patch.txt > > > The GetTables thrift call takes a long time when the number of table is large. > With around 5000 tables, the call takes around 80 seconds compared to a "Show > Tables" query on the same HiveServer2 instance which takes 3-7 seconds. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
