Thanks for the suggestion! This cluster is dedicated to kylin so I tried a few other changes.
After switching to Hadoop 2.7.7 and the stable versions of Hive, Tez, Hbase (1.4.3) for that version of Hadoop everything is working better. I'm able to build a cube with Kylin 2.5.2 with compression enabled and that works for now. The only issue is that Kylin 2.5.2 has a problem figuring out KYLIN_CONF (when KYLIN_HOME is properly set) and some steps and the WEB UI will fail by not being able to find various properties or conf files. Looking at the log its consistently mis-calculating KYLIN_CONF so a sym. link fixed this as a workaround and can move forward :) Thanks!
