Haisheng Yuan commented on CALCITE-3181:
----------------------------------------
Yes, they are quite similar with each other.
There are still some slight difference, the window keep the row count to the
limit, but the aggregate in CALCITE-4687 only generate 1 row per group, no
matter with or without the limit. So maybe not exchangable?

> Key: CALCITE-3181
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CALCITE-3181
> Project: Calcite
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: core
> Reporter: Haisheng Yuan
> Priority: Major
>
> We have a lot of queries like the following to retrieve top N tuples per
> group:
> {code:java}
> SELECT x, y FROM
> (SELECT x, y, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY x ORDER BY y)
> AS rn FROM t1) t2 WHERE rn <= 3;
> {code}
> The performance is not good if each group has a lot more tuples than wanted,
> because we will retrieve and sort all the tuples, instead of just doing a
> top-N heap sort.
> In order to do optimization for this kind of query, we need to extend window
> to support limit, if and only if there is only 1 window function, and it is
> {{row_number()}}. We also need a substitute rule to push the limit into
> window. Of course, we also need to modify executor to support this
> optimization (can be later).
> {code:java}
> Filter (rn <= 3)
> +- Window (window#0={Partition by x order by y ROW_NUMBER()})
> {code}
> to
> {code:java}
> Filter (rn <= 3)
> +- Window (window#0={Partition by x order by y limit 3 ROW_NUMBER()})
> {code}
> Thoughts? Objections?
