> Currently the stats for group by is estimated by taking product of NDVs of all the keys and bounding it by the number of rows of its input. This bound could be improved by using the source table instead of immediate input, the insight in this case is that cardinality/ndvs of a table can not go beyond the original (outer joins will only add NULLs thereby increasing the cardinality by 1).
> Note that the assumption here is that group by keys all belong to the same source table/input.
> This will improve the estimation in situations where group by is executed after joins wherein Hive could end up estimating the number of rows.

> create table t1(i int, j int);
> alter table t1 update statistics set('numRows'='10000', 'rawDataSize'='18000');
> alter table t1 update statistics for column i set('numDVs'='2500','numNulls'='50','highValue'='1000','lowValue'='0');
> alter table t1 update statistics for column j set('numDVs'='500','numNulls'='30','highValue'='100','lowValue'='50');
> create table t2(i2 int, j2 int);
> alter table t2 update statistics set('numRows'='100000000', 'rawDataSize'='10000');
> alter table t2 update statistics for column i2 set('numDVs'='10000000','numNulls'='0','highValue'='8000','lowValue'='0');
> alter table t2 update statistics for column j2 set('numDVs'='10','numNulls'='0','highValue'='800','lowValue'='-1');
