> When user loads/reloads hive tables from web console, kylin will submit a mr job asynchronously to calculate column cardinalities. This has four major problems:
> # the calculated cardinality is stored in table metadata, but never used in cubing/querying
> # table may change after loading, so the cardinality doesn't necessarily reflect the actual value
> # the current `HiveColumnCardinalityJob` has many limitations, e.g., it doesn't support views
> # the `HiveColumnCardinalityJob` may use lots of resources when computing cardinality of partitioned table
> Due to these problems, we should disable it by default and (maybe) remove it in future releases.
