Thank you for the mention and I like your dive into the stats. I'm sure no harm was intentioned and things will get sorted out soon.
Wish we could load Hive Data into the cloud - say maybe BigQuery. Then provide a front end that users can enter their SQL query into to gather stats on how Hive's doing.
This is yet another possibility of getting into the analytics related to hive data. I would definitely like to see if you can import it into some sort of cloud and make an analysis of this data as well.
