> Key: HIVE-21398
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-21398
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Zoltan Haindrich
> Assignee: Zoltan Haindrich
> Priority: Major
>
> Right now for a column to qualify as a unique column it has to meet the criteria:
> {code}
> NDV >= numRows
> {code}
> when numRows is 1 this tends to be true ; but numRows is also 1 in cases when we are kinda operate in the blind - don't know how many row there are - more generatlly: with estimated column statistics.
> As a sideeffect of qualifying all columns to be unique; after a few joins all column combinations became unique....so for a join between 3 tables which have (i,j,k) columns; then it will allocate {{i*j*k}} triplets of "unique column triplets".
