will go through ALL tables in hockey issuing metadata query before reaching table=hockey.

In my case (~50k atoms) migrator does not reach desired table not after hours of running because it is extracting structure for each table in schema rendering migrator useless.

Suggested fix: SKIP over tables with TABLENAME <> --table.
