Maryann Xue commented on PHOENIX-852:
-------------------------------------

[~jamestaylor] Just realized one thing: Some child-to-parent joins will cover a 
full range of PKs, for example, an employee basic info table joining a an 
employee payroll table on employee_id. Thus, this optimization would be an 
extra overhead. So I'd like to add a switch and I'm thinking of two options:
1. hint
2. a limit on the size of the value set, say, if too many point look-ups, we 
simply do a full scan.

What do you think? either of them or both? if (2), what default limit value 
would be reasonable?

> Often times a join will occur from a child to a parent. Our current algorithm 
> would do a full scan of one side or the other. We can do much better than 
> that if the HashCache contains the PK (or even part of the PK) from the table 
> being joined to. In these cases, we should drive the second scan through a 
> skip scan on the server side.
