Vertica performance degradation while loading parquet files over delimited files from s3 to vertica
问题 I have parquet files for 2 Billion records with GZIP compression and the same data with SNAPPY compression. Also, I have Delimited files for the same 2 Billion records. We have 72 Vertica nodes in AWS prod, we are seeing a huge performance spike for parquet files while moving data from s3 to Vertica with COPY command than Delimited files. Parquet takes 7x more time than Delimited files eventhough delimited file size is 50X more than parquet. Below are the stats for the test we conducted.
