The older min/max statistics for the row groups are trickier since it is not properly specified. The issue is if only one implementation of parquet in the wild would do the similar truncate we may loose data when filtering if we use this "aggressive optimization". Dictionary is a completely different thing. It contains the very values from the pages themselves. It is not designed to be used for filtering (but we use anyway) but to save space. > Improve performance when filters in RowGroupFilter can match exactly > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: PARQUET-2237 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PARQUET-2237 > Project: Parquet > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Mars > Priority: Major > > If we can accurately judge by the minMax status, we don’t need to load the > dictionary from filesystem and compare one by one anymore. > Similarly , Bloomfilter needs to load from filesystem, it may costs time and > memory.
