>                 Key: IMPALA-8033
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-8033
>             Project: IMPALA
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Frontend
>    Affects Versions: Impala 3.1.0
>            Reporter: Paul Rogers
>            Priority: Minor
>
> The use of the method {{PlanNode.getInputCardinality()}} has evolved to have 
> two slightly different, but conflicting, meanings:
> * The actual cardinality of the input table, needed to compute join 
> cardinality.
> * The number of rows to be read, taking into consideration any limits placed 
> on reading.
> Because join calculations are wrong if we do not use the actual base table 
> cardinality, we cannot use the input cardinality interchangeably with table 
> cardinality.
> Instead, break the function into two: {{getTableCardinality()}} to get the 
> actual cardinality for use in joins, and the existing 
> {{getInputCardinality()}} used for other purposes.
