[jira] [Commented] (HIVE-7277) how to decide reduce numbers according to the input size of reduce stage rather than the input size of map stage?

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7277?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14041733#comment-14041733 ] 

Gopal V commented on HIVE-7277:
-------------------------------

Yes, this is how HIVE-7158 works.

The reducer counts are estimated at runtime from counters from the map-phase.

> As we  know ,now  hive decide the  reduce numbers  just by  the " Input size of   map/ hive.exec.reducers.bytes.per.reducer(default 1G ).....
> But ,I  think  the out put size of map stage  may have a big difference from  the original  input size , so I  think  this  strategy to decide reduce-numbers may be improper....
> So is   there any feature  which can decide the reduce number just  according to the out put  of the map stage.?    thanks .  
>  As  I know , actually ,the reduce stage will begin just  after some map tasks have finished rather than until  the  whole map stage have finished , so I  think  it is improper too  decide reduce numbers   when  the  whole map stage  have finished.
> As  someone point ,We can just according to  the out put size of the  earliest map tasks which have finished   to  estimate the whole reduce numbers......However,   in fact ,now Hive has used filter push down(where) ,which may  resulting a big  difference from each map task .
> So,  this  estimation  is improper.
> thanks .
