> The Utilities class has two methods, {{getInputSummary}} and {{getInputPaths}}, that use the variable {{mapred.dfsclient.parallelism.max}} to get the summary of a list of input locations in parallel. These methods are Hive related, but the variable name does not look it is specific for Hive.
> Also, the above variable is not on HiveConf nor used anywhere else. I just found a reference on the Hadoop MR1 code.
> I'd like to propose the deprecation of {{mapred.dfsclient.parallelism.max}}, and use a different variable name, such as {{hive.get.input.listing.num.threads}}, that reflects the intention of the variable. The removal of the old variable might happen on Hive 3.x
