Add tools for improved analysis and understanding of query plans and execution statistics -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: DERBY-4587 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-4587 Project: Derby Issue Type: Improvement Components: SQL, Tools Reporter: Bryan Pendleton Assignee: Bryan Pendleton I think it would be great to see some work in the area of tools for helping with the analysis of complex query execution. Quite frequently, users of Derby have trouble comprehending (a) how their query is being translated into a query plan by the optimizer, and (b) what the execution-time resource usage of the various parts of the query is. There are low-level features in Derby which capture this information and record it, such as logQueryPlan, and the XPLAIN tables, but there is a lot of opportunity for designing higher-level tools which can process the query plan and execution statistics information and present it in a more comprehensible fashion. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
