Lars Hofhansl commented on PHOENIX-1940:
----------------------------------------
Here's another question [~giacomotaylor]: Can I figure out at the time when we
call KeyValueUtil.getColumnLatest whether there is a single column family in
the Phoenix schema? If so, we could even spare the compare of the column
family. This would need to work reliably even for views over existing HBase
tables.

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-1940
> Project: Phoenix
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: James Taylor
>
> Looks like quite a bit of time is spent in the binary search done to get the
> latest Cell value when we're evaluating expressions on the server side (up to
> 60% is spent in KeyValueUtil.getColumnLatest()). Since we know the set of
> column qualifiers being projected into the scan, we could push the expected
> position (assuming all columns have values). If the Cell is not in that
> position, we could fall back to a binary search.
> Further enhancements could be to: allow a not null constraint on KeyValue
> columns and either a) require all non null values to be provided on an
> UPSERT, or b) do a check and put to enforce it (for transactional tables this
> could be enforced).
> Additionally, the table could declare that dynamic columns are not allowed.
> If both of the above are true, then we'd be able guaranteed positional access
> the List<Cell> that we get back from an HBase Scanner.
> One further enhancement would be to collect a set of all ColumnExpression
> instances on the server side for all expressions sent over. Then, we'd bind
> them once, outside of the general expression evaluation of all expressions in
> a statement for a given row. An example of where this would save time would
> be in evaluating the following TPCH-Q1 aggregate query:
> {code}
> SELECT
> l_returnflag,
> l_linestatus,
> sum(l_quantity) as sum_qty,
> sum(l_extendedprice) as sum_base_price,
> sum(l_extendedprice * (1 - l_discount)) as sum_disc_price,
> sum(l_extendedprice * (1 - l_discount) * (1 + l_tax)) as sum_charge,
> avg(l_quantity) as avg_qty,
> avg(l_extendedprice) as avg_price,
> avg(l_discount) as avg_disc,
> count(*) as count_order
> FROM
> lineitem
> WHERE
> l_shipdate <= date '1998-12-01' - interval '90' day
> GROUP BY
> l_returnflag,
> l_linestatus
> ORDER BY
> l_returnflag,
> l_linestatus;
> {code}
> During aggregation, the KeyValueColumnExpression for l_extendedprice would be
> evaluated four times currently, once per occurrence in different SELECT
> expressions. This enhancement would cut that down to once.
