Gabriele Nizzoli updated SPARK-34573:
-------------------------------------
    Description: 
SQLConf object has a sqlConfEntries map, which has a global lock (since it 
implements a Collections.synchronizedMap).
 Every operation (like get or set) blocks the full object.
 Concurrent threads may wait on lock.

An example is the DatatType.sameType method, that queries SQLConf entries map:
{code:scala}
if (SQLConf.get.caseSensitiveAnalysis) 
 ...
{code}
If this data type check is run in a custom piece of code on an executor with 
multiple cores (eg: 40), then a lot of time will be lost waiting on the lock.
 An easy fix is to use the a ConcurrentHashMap that does not lock on read 
SQLConf.get): " ... retrieval operations do not entail locking ..."
