> Could you please clarify the comment about codegen? At which point is the codegen invoked? Rust relies on monomorophisation of generics, i.e. each distinct parametrisation of a generic generates a "copy" of that code. This can quickly add up and bloat binary size and compile times. See https://rustc-dev-guide.rust-lang.org/backend/monomorph.html > You mean coercion from, say, f32 to f64? What are you referring to in this sentence? DataFusion has existing logic to coerce inputs to those compatible with a function signature, if we provide the ability to multiply `interval * i64`, DataFusion has existing machinery to generalize this to `interval * (type coercable to i64)`, including from things like strings. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
