Re: Total length of orc clustered table is always 2^31 in TezSplitGrouper

This is the INT_MAX “placeholder” value for uncompacted ACID tables.

This is because with ACIDv1 there is no way to generate splits against uncompacted files, so this gets “an empty bucket + unknown number of inserts + updates” placeholder value.

Thank you Gopal for pointing the root cause. After running command alter table xxx compact ‘major’ to request a force compaction, total length is right !

Is there any way to do compact immediately after insert values.

Thanks
