[jira] Created: (HADOOP-4183) select * to console issues in Hive

select * to console issues in Hive
----------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-4183
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4183
             Project: Hadoop Core
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: contrib/hive
            Reporter: Joydeep Sen Sarma


the biggest problem is that select * is assuming that the output is a regular text file. it can't read out from compressed text files. (which is what happens when we start using the output compression options).

the core issue is that select * is special code. and it should not be. it should go through the same 'fileinputformat' and serde code that any map-side task goes through.

the second issue is that a select * without any data transformations/filters goes through a map-reduce task unnecessarily. we need to fix this. this seems related to the limit N jira that ashish opened. (see hadoop-4086)
