[jira] [Commented] (HIVE-6229) Stats are missing sometimes (regression from HIVE-5936)

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6229?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13944371#comment-13944371 ] 

Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-6229:
--------------------------------------

*hive.stats.key.prefix.reserve.length* is now documented in the wiki, but its description needs review and clarification:

{quote}
Reserved length for postfix of statistics key. Currently only meaningful for counter type statistics which should keep the length of the full statistics key smaller than the maximum length configured by hive.stats.key.prefix.max.length. For counter type statistics, it should be bigger than the length of LB spec if exists.
{quote}

What does "LB spec" mean?  All I could find by googling was the Ljung–Box test.  Does "if exists" mean "if the LB spec exists"?  And what is "it" in "it should be bigger" -- this parameter's setting or the length of the full statistics key?

> if prefix length is smaller than hive.stats.key.prefix.max.length but length of prefix + postfix is bigger than that, stats are missed.
