These are not independent states. Probably better to use your enum, with
the initial value as null (unknown).
> Improve performance of filter operator for pattern matching

> Key: DRILL-5697
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-5697
> Project: Apache Drill
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Execution - Flow
> Affects Versions: 1.11.0
> Reporter: Padma Penumarthy
> Assignee: Padma Penumarthy
>
> Queries using filter with sql like operator use Java regex library for
> pattern matching. However, for cases like %abc (ends with abc), abc% (starts
> with abc), %abc% (contains abc), it is observed that implementing these cases
> with simple code instead of using regex library provides good performance
> boost (4-6x). Idea is to use special case code for simple, common cases and
> fall back to Java regex library for complicated ones. That will provide good
> performance benefit for most common cases.
