[jira] [Commented] (HIVE-22255) Hive don't trigger Major Compaction automatically if table contains only base files

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-22255?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17128320#comment-17128320 ] 

Peter Vary commented on HIVE-22255:
-----------------------------------

[~Rajkumar Singh]: There is a customer who is using {{INSERT OVERWRITE}} to overwrite an existing ACID table. The do not use any other DML to change the data, so they end up with only base directories in the table. On S3 it could be costly to read the listing for all those directories, so we end up wasting resources here. Do you have time to work on this, or we should take over?

Thanks,
Peter

> user may run into the issue if the table consists of all base files but no delta, then the following condition will yield false and automatic major compaction will be skipped.
