Summary: Slowness with many IN() values

We were testing the query efficiency with some sql containing 'IN' keyword
on a relatively big table which holds 22+ Million records.
It seems to us that sql with a number of items in 'IN' show very poor
performance in terms of running time.
The fact table used has three columns: themonth, id, trans_at, and we
created the cube with 2 dimensions and 1 measure:
Dimensions: themonth, id
Measure: sum(trans_at)
Basically our queries are all similar to the one:
select themonth, id, sum(trans_at) from the_table where id IN (id1, id2,
id3, .) group by themonth, id limit 10
When the number of ids reaches about 30-50, the response time becomes
considerable long in terms of minutes. By the way, we are running kylin on
12 nodes with 2 name nodes and 10 data nodes.
Besides, we tried to break the above sql with 'IN' keyword into several
sub-sql and merge the results of each sub-sql to get the final result like
the following:
select themonth, id, sum(trans_at) from the_table where id = id1 group by
themonth, id limit 10
select themonth, id, sum(trans_at) from the_table where id = id2 group by
themonth, id limit 10
select themonth, id, sum(trans_at) from the_table where id = id3 group by
themonth, id limit 10
.
Surprisedly, the total running time of those sub-sql is much less than the
running time of the orginal sql with 'IN' keyword.
Initially I thought the backend query engine should handle 'IN' keyword in
the similar way as the individual sql with '=' keyword, but it seems not.
Can anybody provide any thoughts regarding this? Any ideas on how to tune
the queries containing 'IN' keyword?
