> There are some obvious inefficiencies with how the query state record works:
> * We do an unnecessary copy of the archive string when adding it to the query 
> log

> * We eagerly convert the profile to text and JSON, when in many cases they 
> won't be needed -

>  . I think it is generally rare for more than one profile format to be 
> downloaded from the web UI. I know of tools that scrape the thrift profile, 
> but the human-readable version would usually only be consumed by humans. We 
> could avoid this by only storing the thrift representation of the profile, 
> then reconstituting the other representations from thrift if requested.
> * After ComputeExecSummary(), the profile shouldn't change, but we'll 
> regenerate the thrift representation for every web request to get the 
> encoded. This may waste a lot of CPU for tools scraping the profiles.
