Mamta A. Satoor commented on DERBY-3788:
----------------------------------------
My understanding of DERBY-3892 is as follows
1)A query is exectued and the best plan for it is picked up based on the
current data in the database
2)The data changes quite a bit which makes the plan chosen for the query not an
optimal plan but during the next execution of the query, we continue to use the
plan chosen in step 1).
Based on the above understanding of DERBY-3892, the current work going on for
DERBY-3788 is not going to fix DERBY-3892. This jira entry will go and build
the statistics if during the query compilation it is found that the required
statistics do not exist. Hope this answers your question about DERBY-3892, Dag.

> DERBY-269 provided a manual way of updating the statistics using the new
> system stored procedure SYSCS_UTIL.SYSCS_UPDATE_STATISTICS. It will be good
> for Derby to provide an automatic way of updating the statistics without
> requiring to run the stored procedure manually. There was some discussion on
> DERBY-269 about providing the 0-admin way. I have copied it here for
> reference.

> I have not seen any other suggestions, how about the following zero admin
> solution? It is not perfect - suggestions welcome.
> Along with the statistics storing, save how many rows were in the table when
> exact statistics were calculated. This number is 0 if none have been
> calculated because index creation happened on an empty table. At query
> compile time when we look up statistics we automatically recalculate the
> statistics at certain threshholds - say something like row count growing past
> next threshhold : 10, 100, 1000, 100000 - with upper limit being somewhere
> around how many rows we can process in some small amount of time - like 1
> second on a modern laptop. If we are worried about response time, maybe we
> background queue the stat gathering rather than waiting with maybe some quick
> load if no stat has ever been gathered. The background gathering could be
> optimized to not interfere with locks by using read uncommitted.
> I think it would be useful to also have the manual call just to make it easy
> to support customers and debug issues in the field. There is proably always
> some dynamic data distribution change that in some case won't be picked up by
> the automatic algorithm. Also just very useful for those who have complete
> control of the create ddl, load data, run stats, deliver application process.
