Stephen Mallette commented on TINKERPOP-2933:
---------------------------------------------
Gremlin does not enforce order as most underlying graph systems typically can't
support that requirement. If you need order you must explicitly {{order()}} to
retain the same results.
> LazyBarrierStrategy affects the output order of query result

> Key: TINKERPOP-2933
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TINKERPOP-2933
> Project: TinkerPop
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Lei Tang
> Priority: Major
>
> I find that when I remove `LazyBarrierStrategy`, sometimes the output order
> of query result can be changed. I don't know whether it is a correct
> behavior, but it sometimes can affect the query result, e.g., a `range()` or
> `limit()` in a query.
> For example, I can get the consistent result with the following queries.
> {code:java}
> gremlin> :>
> g.withoutStrategies(LazyBarrierStrategy).V().out('el0','el1').has('vp1',
> lt(0.30755568))
> ==>v[98]
> ==>v[14]
> ==>v[94]
> gremlin> :> g.V().out('el0','el1').has('vp1', lt(0.30755568))
> ==>v[98]
> ==>v[14]
> ==>v[94]
> {code}
> However, I retrieved a different order of results with the following two
> queries. I think they should also execute the same query results, as well as
> the same order.
> {code:java}
> gremlin> :> g.V().out('el0','el1').not(__.has('vp1', lt(0.30755568)))
> ==>v[78]
> ==>v[35]
> ==>v[103]
> ==>v[103]
> ==>v[80]
> ==>v[80]
> ==>v[50]
> gremlin> :>
> g.withoutStrategies(LazyBarrierStrategy).V().out('el0','el1').not(__.has('vp1',
> lt(0.30755568)))
> ==>v[78]
> ==>v[35]
> ==>v[103]
> ==>v[80]
> ==>v[103]
> ==>v[80]
> ==>v[50]
> {code}
> Thus, if I have some other operations after it, I will get different query
> results.
> {code:java}
> gremlin> :>
> g.withoutStrategies(LazyBarrierStrategy).V().out('el0','el1').not(__.has('vp1',
> lt(0.30755568))).tail(3)
> ==>v[103]
> ==>v[80]
> ==>v[50]
> gremlin> :> g.V().out('el0','el1').not(__.has('vp1', lt(0.30755568))).tail(3)
