>                 Key: IMPALA-4773

>             Project: IMPALA
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Catalog
>    Affects Versions: Impala 2.8.0

> The patch for addressing IMPALA-4765 introduced a new critical data structure 'tableLoadingBarrier_' to prevent using multiple table-loading threads for the same table. 
> However, the following bug might be difficult to detect with the current logging//metrics. If for some reason an entry in the 'tableLoadingBarrier_' is never removed then that table will never again be loaded and all queries waiting for that table will hang (and will not be cancellable, see IMPALA-915). The only remedy is to restart the catalogd.
> We should carefully consider the above possibility and how to debug/identify it from logs, and perhaps enhance the logging.
