-----------------------------
Assignee: (was: Kim Haase)
> Tuning Guide: Puzzling optimizer documentation
> ----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: DERBY-1397
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1397
> Project: Derby
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Documentation
> Affects Versions: 10.2.1.6
> Reporter: Rick Hillegas
> Labels: derby_triage10_5_2
>
> Selectivity and cardinality statistics
> Working with cardinality statistics
> When cardinality statistics are automatically updated
> "For other operations, Derby automatically updates statistics for the
> table and all indexes on the table if they are already exist. Those
> operations are:
> * (all indexes) When you execute SYSCS_UTIL.SYSCS_COMPRESS_TABLE.
> * (index only) When you drop a column that is part of a table's index; the
> statistics for the affected index are dropped, and statistics for the other
> indexes on the table are updated.
> "
> What does the second bullet mean? Derby doesn't let you drop a column from a
> table right now.
> ----------------------------------------------------------
> Here's another puzzling piece of optimizer documentation:
> I'm puzzled by the following paragraph in Tuning Guide->DML statements and
> performance->Performance and optimization->Joins and performance->Join
> strategies:
> "If memory use is not a problem for your environment, set this property to a
> high number; allowing the optimizer the maximum flexibility in considering a
> join strategy queries involving large queries leads to better performance. It
> can also be set to smaller values for more limited environments."
> I can't find the name of this property on that page of the Tuning Guide. I'm
> also confused about what we consider to be a "high number" versus what we
> consider to be "smaller values". Would appreciate advice here.
> Satheesh adds this:
> The property it may be referring to is
> *derby.language.maxMemoryPerTable*. The default value is 1024 KB.
> Current default value is too small, so it would be a good tip for
> developers to know and tune this property. It would be great if Derby
> can configure this property value based on factors like max heap size,
> size of data cache and/or other parameters.
